Diamond Engagement Ring

Here is a perfect engagement ring for someone who wants new with all the charm and character of an antique ring - a handmade gold and platinum diamond engagement ring set with antique diamonds and made the exact way as they did 100 years ago. Made by our English trained Master jeweller, there are a few different techniques in making a ring today, however it is the fine attention that really separates one ring from another. Even a simple claw setting can have so many different techniques used in its making such as with the ring here. With the lovely platinum claws supporting five antique cut European cut diamonds that sparkle wonderfully thanks to the amount of light that is able to enter the diamonds from all angles, the diamonds total 1.85 carats in weight and are G to J in colour and Vs to Si in clarity. Measuring 6.5mm wide at the centre by 19.7mm across, this ring will also support a wedding band along side to make the perfect match. New meets old in this diamond engagement ring, and is destined to always be admired and sparkle on the finger.   Stock# ES6779 $7,700

If you have been after an engagement ring that new but in a classic vintage design, then this beautiful 18ct diamond engagement ring set with an antique diamond might just be the one. Sitting proudly in the centre is a genuine antique European cut diamond that measures 0.82 carats and is I in colour and VS in clarity and has all the charm and personal character of being cut by hand over a century ago. European cut diamonds share the same number of facets as today’s modern round brilliant cut diamond, but as they were cut by hand over a century ago and more knowledge has been gained about the angles to cut, the European cut diamond usually has a higher top and bottom than the modern round brilliant cut. The setting has so much detail and really shows the difference between when a vintage style is done correctly such as here and you are hard pressed to see it as a reproduction, or other ones that simply don't have that extra level of detail as is seen in this ring. From either the top or the side, this ring has all the style and look of a genuine Art Deco diamond ring and will easily accommodate a wedding bang sitting alongside. Measuring 7mm wide at the centre by 15.3mm across, this diamond engagement ring is just perfect for someone who is after something new and something old.   Stock# ES7757 $8,800

Here is a very beautiful antique style 3 stone diamond engagement ring that has been made by one of our jewellers in an exact style of an original Art Deco diamond engagement ring and set with three lovely antique cut diamonds. This ring is an exact copy of an original antique one and not only has all the detail but also genuine antique diamonds. Jewellery today is often case made where the pieces are mass produced and although this has the advantage of bringing the cost down to make a ring, however the quality in the fine detail will not be there and there is a chance that the metal has porosity which are minute air bubbles in the metal causing weakness, so a hand made ring has so many more advantages. And this ring was not just entirely hand made, but made in platinum which is not just the purest of all the precious metals used in jewellery, but also allows the fine detail that can be seen on the side be made all the while retaining the strength for the diamonds. In total there are three lovely European cut diamonds which have the same 58 facets as today's modern round brilliant cut diamond, but with slightly different angles and the centre diamond measures 0.91 carats and the diamonds on each side measures 0.56 carats and 0.52 carats. These diamonds are G to H in colour and VS in clarity meaning that they are in the white range of colour and are nice and clean with no eye visible inclusions. And of course they have the added charm of being genuine antique European cut diamonds that were cut by hand over 100 years ago and are being used to bring a new ring to life. When you look at the detail on the sides, set among the beautiful scroll work is a single cut diamond to add to the charm and character and is exactly as the original ring had. Then to complete the perfection, the sides have the most beautiful detail and craftsmanship and from the top measures 17mm from left to right by 6.8mm wide. This is such a beautiful diamond engagement ring that has the past and the present combined in one beautiful ring. Stock# ES6925 $18,200
