Marvellous 7.93 ct Emerald-Cut Diamond, set in a Platinum Ring from

Jewelry set exclusively with diamonds and radiating a brilliant white glow had been the dream of goldsmiths and jewelry lovers since the late 19th century—but this dream was not realized until the Art Deco era, when jewelers began crafting pieces of jewellery from white gold and platinum. Unlike silver, which tarnishes over time, these newly developed—or newly adopted—metals were white enough to showcase diamonds in their most radiant form. This ring from our workshop seems to be the fulfillment of that dream: a platinum band leads to an airy setting that appears almost invisible when viewed from above. Four simple prongs hold the center stone, a magnificent, natural 7.93-carat emerald-cut diamond. The size of this precious diamond and its clear cut highlight the qualities that define its individuality: Thanks to its large facets, both its brilliance and light dispersion are particularly striking. Measuring more than 1.5 cm in length, the diamond shimmers with a very faintly tinted colour that appears warm white to the eye (Faint Brown, K). It also captivates with its exceptional clarity: Only under a microscope can the finest inclusions (“VVS1,” “very very small inclusions”) be detected; they are invisible to the naked eye. Twelve additional brilliant-cut diamonds flank the center stone on the double-set shoulders, perfecting the design, which contrasts the preciousness of the fine diamonds with a simple and graphic aesthetic. The diamonds seem to almost become one with the white surface of the metal: the entire ring face dissolves into a play of light reflections, an effect that intensifies with every movement. We had the ring custom-made in our workshop specifically for this large diamond. The diamond, which came to us from Geneva, is accompanied by a Natural Diamond Grading Report from the GIA (Gemmological Institute of America). It is a rare stone whose weight, clarity, and warm hue are particularly remarkable in this setting.
