Precious Unworn Solitaire Ring with 1.70 ct Brilliant in Platinum

The custom of presenting a diamond ring as an engagement gift has been documented since the late Middle Ages. However, this hardest of all gemstones was a distinct treasure and almost the exclusive privilege of the nobility. It was only after the discovery of rich deposits in South Africa in the late 19th century that broader classes were able to afford diamond jewellery. The classic solitaire ring, i.e. a ring with only one diamond, is said to date back to a design by the famous jeweller Tiffany & Co. in 1886. To this day, this form of ring has remained the epitome of the engagement ring: It concentrates all the symbolism that can be expected from a piece of jewellery that is based on a promise. Such a solitaire ring was created here in Berlin on our commission. In its center it presents a sparkling brilliant-cut diamond weighing 1.705 carats. The ring band and setting made of platinum support the brilliance of the diamond of the colour grade "Fine White / Top Wesselton, G" with natural inclusions that testify to its authenticity. The vintage diamond of the years around 1950 is securely held by six prongs. The ring was intentionally made to be sustainable: Both the diamond and the platinum of the ring are used here in second use, they are reused, historical materials. An independent appraisal on the quality of the materials is included with the ring. We love this ring design because it’s simple and lets the beautiful diamond take center stage.
