Extraordinary doesn't even come close to describing just how beautiful this diamond bracelet is.
Dating from the 1920's Art Deco period in 15 carat gold and platinum, even each individual setting alone is so beautiful to admire. The exquisite detail in the setting truly showcases how much time and attention went into making this bracelet, as does the clasp which itself is set with not just thee rose cut diamonds on each side, but the centre diamond is larger than the two side ones.
Then of course there are the seventeen European cut diamonds that not only have all the charm and character of being cut y hand all those years ago, as well as being so much more individual and special that a series of modern diamonds in a bracelet, but they also perfectly graduate in size leading to the largest one in the centre that measures 1.09 carats. The rose cut diamonds total 0.04 carats, and all the other additional diamonds total a very impressive 8.52 carats.
This bracelet is truly an exceptional piece of jewellery and one that is destined to become a much loved and treasured family heirloom.
This bracelet came in with their matching earrings which can be viewed here: https://www.kalmarantiques.com.au/product/1920s-art-deco-diamond-drop-earrings/

Exquisite Art Deco diamond bracelet
Exquisite Art Deco diamond bracelet made in 18 carat gold and platinum during the Art Deco era of the 1920's.
During the mid 19th century, the European cut came into focus, and was an attempt to change the earlier old mine cut diamonds into a more perfect round cut. These stones can be considered as the first true round brilliant cut diamonds. The facets from the old miners were kept in their same position, but changed shape to a more round and evenly shaped stone.
The culets became smaller, as it was realised that light could leak out from this point in the stone. The development of the modern brilliant cut occurred in the early part of the 20thcentury with further modifications through the century. Diamond cutters apply the brilliant cut to other shapes, and this very exacting skill continues to enthrall craftsman and enthusiasts alike.
