Latest Vintage Piece
1.25ct. tw. VS-GH square baguette diamond eternity ring, 3.1gr., platinum, sz. 5 1/4. $1,750.00 CAD. 121-00231
“Anniversary rings” are some of the most versatile designs around, and they don’t need to be reserved for a special anniversary. The flat edge allows them the fit flush with many different rings. They can be used in front or behind your existing wedding/engagement set, they look look great when stacked up against a plain wedding ring other flat edged design. We get a steady supply of anniversary style rings, most featuring a string of channel or prong set round diamond across the top and shoulders. Few anniversary rings have diamonds set around the entire circumference, fewer still feature anything other than round brilliant cut diamonds. Our latest anniversary ring is a full eternity design showcasing an endless row of square baguette step cut diamonds elegantly channel set in an uninterrupted string of high quality sparkle. The 32 diamonds are of VS-GH quality and measure 2mm x 2mm. The ring only measures 2.75mm in width, so pretty much all you see are the twinkling natural diamonds.
It measures a rather small finger size 5 1/4. The taller wall height of 2mm allows us to bore this ring out a bit to increase the size by a small amount if needed. Being made from durable platinum means this ring can be worn for decades without concern if worn responsibly. It’s hard to place a date on this classic design; it could be only a few years old but it could also be more than 100 years old. It has no metal content/purity stamp or maker mark but we have tested it to be premium quality platinum. The pierced frame design allows easy cleaning and extra strength as each diamond is nestled into its own square setting.
Of the 32 diamonds 5 have chipped corners that go unnoticed except under extreme scrutiny or magnification. Even with the minor chips the diamonds are quite secure and in no danger of coming out. This sort of eternity ring is very rare to encounter, it would be difficult and rather expensive to replace. Apart from the 5 diamonds that have chipped corners the ring is in very good condition, showing little wear to the channels that secure the diamonds in place. Estate priced at $1,750.00 CAD. Stock #121-00231.
