So sorry dear, I couldn't get you nicer flowers! But I think the wrapping band makes up for it a bit
Decorative Art Retro/Fifties gold bangle set with diamonds and sapphires
Country of origin: Belgium
Style: Something between Art Retro and Fifties (of the twentieth century)
Style specifics: Retro Style is a recent designation for the period in the forties when large-scale, stylized geometric forms, drapes, bows, or ribbons were all the rage. Pink gold, set with colored stones, sometimes in floral forms, was common. But this type of jewellery is also very specific for the fifties of the twentieth century.
Period: ca. 1950
Theme: belt
Material: platinum and 18K yellow gold
Diamonds: 16 semi-modern brilliant cut diamonds with a total estimated weight of approx. 1.28 ct. Their cut is semi-modern as the stones are polished around 1950, which means that although by today's standards they are considered to be modern brilliant cuts, their culet (the point at the bottom) is still polished flat. Three single brilliant cut diamonds (also called 8/8) with a total estimated weight of approx. 0.12 ct. Note: All diamond weights, color grades, and clarity are approximate since the stones were not removed from their mounts to preserve the integrity of the setting. Total diamond weight: approx. 1.40 ct.
Precious stones: 25 sapphires
Birthstones: Diamond is the birthstone (or month stone) for April and sapphire for September.
Hallmarks: "950pt" indicating a platinum alloy of 95%, 750 indicating 18K gold, and the outer shape of the master mark is in the shape of a barrel and was taken into use in Belgium since 1952.
