Art Deco diamond and sapphire engagement ring from ca. 1930
A refined Art Deco engagement ring from around 1930, centred by an old brilliant cut diamond of approximately 0.20 ct. Its geometric white gold head is enlivened by four deep blue lab produced sapphires, set within an openworked design of crisp lines, soft curves and finely pierced detail. Small in scale, yet full of period character, it carries the elegance and optimism of the late Jazz Age.
