Today, the diamond solitaire is considered the classic engagement ring - a tradition that, according to legend, dates back to 1477. In that year, Mary of Burgundy received a diamond ring from Archduke Maximilian of Austria as an engagement gift. However, it was not until the late 19th century, in 1886 to be precise, that the image of the diamond solitaire was coined as a classic engagement ring. Louis Comfort Tiffany invented a setting that raised the diamond above the rail, allowing plenty of light to reach it. Since then, numerous variations on the diamond solitaire theme have been created. A particularly detailed and glamorous variation on the theme is presented here with a ring from the 1920s. The ring is set with a round old-cut diamond, the so-called "Old European Cut", weighing around 0.90 carats and with a bright, white color and very good clarity. The large solitaire is airily set by eight prongs and lifted high above the finger. The special feature of the ring is the fine, elegant framing of the center stone. Hand-cut openwork decorations and millegrains give the ring the appearance of a delicate lace structure. It is made of solid platinum, the most precious of all precious metals at the time. Small octagonal and rose-cut diamonds transform the conical ring face into a firework of white light reflections. The ring is beautifully preserved and a small sculptural work of art from the era of jazz and the Great Gatsby, as well as a wonderful engagement ring for individualists.
