18k Yellow Gold and Platinum. A very rare find, this original Art Nouveau diamond ring is completely unique and utterly romantic featuring the extremely rare antique technique of plique a jour enamel! French for letting in daylight, plique a jour refers to an extremely challenging enamelling technique that creates translucent, unbacked enamel panels.

Exceptionally rare today, it is found mainly in jewelry from the Art Nouveau era (early 1900s). The green enamel plique a jour panes in this ring have the look of mini-stained glass windows and create an extraordinarily striking backdrop for the vibrant diamonds!

The center of the chic kite shaped design is set with a bright white old mine cut diamond while four rose cut diamonds add sparkle to the rings face. Artfully crafted in 18k yellow gold topped with platinum, the setting is truly a testament to the mastery of its Art Nouveau artisan! The effect is elegantly feminine and enchantingly dreamy.

A wearable artifact of the romantic Art Nouveau era, this ring is not only stunningly beautiful, it also provides a rare and meaningful connection to a past epoch. The 0.12ct old mine cut center diamond is very bright white, graded F-G for color. Diamonds from this time period tend to show a hint of color, so it is rare to find such a bright white old mine cut!

Graded SI1-SI2 for clarity, the diamond is completely eye clean. The few inclusions are much too small to be seen with the naked eye. The rose cut diamonds are also bright white, graded F-H for color. Graded SI1-I1 for clarity, they have small white inclusions that dont jump to the eye. All cut by hand, the diamonds are absolutely unique and full of old world charm.

The setting is made of solid 18k yellow gold topped with platinum. The ring measures 23.0mm across (north south) and has excellent coverage! It measures 3.1mm from finger to top.
