Set to centre with an incredible rose-cut diamond in a cut-down closed-back setting. The rose-cut is one of the earliest diamond cuts, originating in the 17th century. Characterised by an arrangement of triangular facets inspired by the petals of a rosebud, rose-cut diamonds are prized for their soft and romantic glow as opposed to the much harsher scintillation of modern laser cut stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe diamond is surrounded by open-work claws which elegantly curve, to an illusion-style surround crafted in hand carved gold work featuring scrolling motifs and volutes. The shoulders are very lightly open and feature chenier motifs. Tapering to a ridge and flowing to a solid gold shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDue to the closed-back setting we would not recommend wearing this ring as an engagement ring due to the risk of getting water trapped behind the diamond. However, this would make an exceptional piece for a collector or rose-cut enthusiast! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Natural Stone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiamond Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.80ct\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiamond Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLength 7.5mm; Width 8mm; Depth 4.8mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiamond: \u003c\/strong\u003eRose-cut.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Band\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMetal Composition:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003etests\u003c\/em\u003e 9 to 12ct gold.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Ring Overall\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFront Head Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLength 12.4mm; Width 14.8mm \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight of Setting:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003emm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGeneral Wear \u0026amp; Condition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExcellent: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eall stones are secure and well set, with no damage to the mount.
