AMONG THE FINEST OLD MINE CUSHION CUT DIAMONDS WE HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED
In Our Decades of Experience Collecting, Examining, and Selling Fine Antique Diamond Jewelry, We Have Rarely Encountered Old Mine Cushion Cut Diamonds So Exceptionally Well Matched in Their Shape, Cut, Proportions, and Overall Appearance.
AN EXTRAORDINARY 6.04 CARAT OLD MINE CUSHION CUT DIAMOND ETERNITY BAND — FEATURING SEVEN GIA-GRADED DIAMONDS
Seven Diamonds were Carefully Removed for GIA Certification and Professionally Reset into their Original Positio
Featuring an Impressive 6.04 Carats of Genuine Natural Mined Old Mine Cushion Cut Diamonds, This Exceptional Antique Eternity Band Showcases the Distinctive Beauty, Individual Character, and Timeless Appeal of Diamonds Cut More Than a Century Ago
Diamonds Are Beautifully Graduated in Size, Beginning with a Substantial .63 Carat Old Mine Cushion Cut Diamond at the Center and Continuing Around the Band in a Gracefully Balanced Arrangement.
Each Diamond Displays the Distinctive Faceting, Broad Flashes of Light, and Individual Character Associated with Genuine Antique Old Mine Cushion Cuts, Creating a Captivating Display of Old-World Brilliance and Sparkle
WHAT MAKES THIS RING PARTICULARLY REMARKABLE IS THE HARMONIOUS OVERALL APPEARANCE OF ITS ANTIQUE DIAMONDS.
Although the Individual Diamonds Vary in Their Natural Color Grades, They Complement One Another Beautifully When Viewed Together in the Rich Hand Engraved 18K Yellow Gold Setting
The Warm Gold Mounting Provides an Ideal Backdrop for These Historic Diamonds, Softening the Visual Contrast Between Their Individual Color Characteristics and Creating an Attractive, Balanced Face-Up Appearance
Rather Than the Uniform Appearance Commonly Associated with Modern Diamond Jewelry, These Genuine Old Mine Cushion Cuts Possess the Individuality, Character, and Distinctive Faceting That Make Original Antique Diamonds So Desirable
Result Is a Remarkably Cohesive and Visually Striking Eternity Band, with Each Diamond Contributing to the Overall Beauty of the Ring.
INDIVIDUAL FOUR-PRONG DIAMOND SETTINGS
Each Old Mine Cushion Cut Diamond Is Individually Secured by Four Prongs Within Its Own Rectangular Gold Panel, with Delicate Vertical Detailing Separating the Stones.
Setting Creates a Beautifully Structured and Continuous Presentation of Diamonds Around the Band, Allowing Each Antique Cut to Retain Its Individual Character While Contributing to the Ring's Overall Design.
Intricate Floral Scrollwork Showcases Exceptional Precision and Artistry, Featuring Gracefully Flowing Leaves, Delicate Curves, and Elaborately Executed Decorative Flourishes Extending Around the Entire 18K Yellow Gold Mounting
In Our Experience, This Is Among the Finest and Most Intricately Executed Hand Engraving We Have Ever Encountered on an Original Antique Diamond Eternity Band
Remarkable Detail and Quality of the Hand Engraving Reflect the Extraordinary Skill of the Original Craftsman, Elevating This Antique Eternity Band into a True Work of Art. Even the 18K Gold Hallmark Was Individually Hand Engraved, a Particularly Distinctive Detail
Combination of Such Beautifully Matched Old Mine Cushion Cut Diamonds, Exceptional Hand Engraving, Substantial 18K Yellow Gold Construction, and Remarkable New Old Stock Condition Makes This Ring Truly Extraordinary
Diamonds Present an Attractive, Harmonious Face-Up Appearance in Their Original-Style 18K Yellow Gold Setting
Individual Stones Naturally Vary in Faceting, Proportions, Color, and Character. These Differences Are Part of Their Historical Appeal
