Crisp and ethereal, an antique, .95 carat marquise-cut diamond (G/H, VS2) rests atop a polished, slim-line, platinum basket. This basket is bezel-like, with an extra-fine edge that allows the diamond to "float" on the hand. A pair of broad, low-profile, tab-style prongs hold the diamond securely at the east and west. These prongs blend into the shoulders of the ring's substantial, half-round shank, so there is no visual disruption to the lovely form of this long, softly-pointed marquise. This diamond dates to the late 1800s it's pattern of large, slightly irregular facets reflects light differently than contemporary marquise cuts; its points are softer, and it has an open, needle-like culet. The ring's setting is modeled in 950 irid platinum. It is finished with a mirror polish. We love the icy, almost mystical quality of this minimalist engagement ring

something about its design (paired with this unusual old diamond) feels fae-like.

This ring was designed by Poor Mouchette and handcrafted in Portland, OR, by collaborating, independent craftspeople— even the antique diamond was sourced locally.
