This is a beautiful diamond solitaire engagement ring dating to the Art Deco era. A round diamond is illusion set in a buttercup style setting. Platinum shoulders are ornately decorated with an engraved design. The shoulders are incredible! The platinum has been carved in soft, floral style flourishes and are adorned in engraved beads and miligrain.

This setting is designed to make the diamond look as though it's larger than it is. This was a popular style during the Art Deco era when larger diamonds were too expensive for the average man to afford to propose to his intended.

Circa 1930s, European in origin.
