Provenance
Made in America c.1949, this topaz and diamond ring has such clean and elegant proportions. Set to centre with a natural swiss blue topaz, a highly sought after variety of the gem with an intense and electric blue as vivid as the clearest Caribbean sea. The way its been cut also creates the depth and reflections of light off the water - its almost like you could dive right into it.
Elegantly claw-set with split prong detail and flanked by two tapered baguette cut diamonds in rub-over settings, perfectly matched in colour and clarity. The gallery is open with minimalistic linear detail - this allows a of light to flood into the topaz from the sides which lets it glow so beautifully.
The design is so sleek - it has the elegance of an Art Deco piece but also the glamour of mid-century style.
