Antique Platinum Engagement Ring with 1.75 Ct Old European Cut Diamond

The custom of presenting a diamond ring as an engagement gift has been documented since the late Middle Ages. However, this hardest of all gemstones was a real treasure and almost exclusively the privilege of the nobility. It was only after rich deposits were discovered in South Africa in the late 19th century that the wider classes were able to afford diamond jewellery. The classic solitaire ring, i.e. a ring with just one diamond, is said to date back to a design by the famous jeweler Tiffany & Co. in 1886. To this day, this form of ring has remained the epitome of the engagement ring. This is because it combines all the symbolism that can be expected from a piece of jewellery that is based on a promise. This is just such a solitaire ring. The ring, dating from around 1940, holds a diamond in an airy chaton setting. The sparkling old European cut diamond has a weight of around 1.75 carats. It is warmly tinted and shows some natural inclusions. The delicate setting is made of solid platinum, making the ring appear bright and white. The maker's mark inside the ring band attributes the piece of jewellery to the Charles Green & Son manufactory in Birmingham, which was founded in 1824. The ring is a romantic and fine piece of jewellery that is just waiting for a new wearer. It found its way to us here in Berlin.
