1940s Three Stone OMC Diamond Engagement Ring
with Traingles, in Platinum
* * SOLD * *
A striking, 1940s, three-stone engagement ring, modeled in platinum, whose central, old mine cushion cut diamond is flanked by a pair of antique triangle cuts. The old mine cut diamond is vibrant, with flashing, slightly-irregular facets, a small table, and a large open culet. The antique triangles are bright and sparkly, with many, slender, ray-like facets and tiny, open culets. These charming hand-cut diamonds are set close together, in clean-line baskets, where they are held in separate prongs. The ring's shank is styled with a pinched, cathedral shoulder, which widens (like a ribbon) toward the base. We love the clean lines of this setting— it allows the diamonds to "float" on the hand. This is beautifully and substantially made.
