About This Piece
This Art Deco ring embodies all the key characteristics of the period with geometric shapes and striking contrast. The step style shoulders, set with little diamond sparkles, frame the central double square setting elgantly. At the centre is a transitional brilliant cut, which perfectly shows how this iconic diamond cut evolved from the chunky old cuts of earlier eras to the precise modern brilliant cut that we know today. The pierced gallery allows light to flood in under the setting for maximum sparkle, while the delicate cut outs, visible from the top of the piece, create contrast through shadow
Why You'll Love It...
This piece captures that striking but effortless beauty of the Art Deco period. It has just the right amount of presence on the finger with a subtle but definite sparkle. The round stone in a square setting is a classic Deco detail before square cuts were common and gives the ring a certain balance and softeness to the structure
