An antique diamond elevates into modern brilliance in this stunning mid-century ring! Today the modern brilliant cut is the standard diamond cut, perfectly proportioned to maximize the gem's ability to refract light in a magnificent show of glitter. Before the modern brilliant cut, antique diamonds were more intuitively cut, each with its own unique sparkling beauty. This stunning antique diamond was recut into a modern brilliant, retaining its unique old-cut charm while elevating its brilliance through modern symmetry. Recut diamonds were popular after 1930 when the modern brilliant was perfected, and this ring dates to the 1940s or 50s, all set in bright white gold. Its elegant diamond studded shoulders stretch like a wave above and below, bypassing and curving around the center diamond like a sparkling embrace. This romantic ring makes an ideal engagement ring – a classic solitaire with a little twist and a remarkable diamond!
