Today, a ring with a diamond is considered the classic engagement ring. Here, the precious (and, according to legend, indestructible) diamond stands for eternity in the language of gemstones - which is intended to emphasize the duration of the promise made with it. It is said that as early as 1477, Duchess Mary of Burgundy was given a ring with a diamond as a promise of fidelity by her future husband Maximilian of Habsburg - but it was not until the late 19th century that this custom became widely established. This ring from the 1930s is timeless and designed with attention to detail. The narrow gold ring band centrally holds a brilliant-cut diamond in an individual transitional cut, which weighs around 0.60 ct and impresses with its very good clarity (vsi) and white color. It is held by a simple prong setting in white gold and flanked by four smaller diamonds on the ring shoulders. When viewed from the side, the rail reveals a design refinement of the time: it is decorated with openwork volutes that are reminiscent of the chapter of an Ionic column. Based on the materials, techniques and design used, we date the ring to around 1935. It came to us from Munich.
