Rose-cut diamonds, also known as "rose couronée" or "crowned roses", can be found in jewelry from as early as the 16th century. Numerous famous diamonds such as the Orloff and the Grand Mogul are designed in this rose cut. It is characterized by the fact that the top of the diamond is faceted in a star shape and the underside is cut flat. This creates a very specific, soft shimmer that is very different from the sometimes garish brilliance of today's diamonds. This ring is entirely set with a glittering pavée of diamond roses. They are set in grained silver settings that hold the stones securely but almost invisibly. A wonderful, medium blue sapphire shines in the center, held in place by delicate gold prongs. The genuinely clear, shining stone is a special treasure, as it is untreated, i.e. not heated. The simple ring band and the gallery of the ring are made of reddish gold. The unusually large ring has a marquise shape. Its design and the combination of materials allow us to date it to the mid-1890s. We were able to acquire it from a German private collection.
