Vintage cultured pearl and diamond ring dating to the mid 20th century. A large white cultured pearl is housed in the centre with diamond set bypass design shoulders. The gold D shape shank flares out at the diamond set top and terminates in a stylish point. Each of the white gold shoulders are set with three single diamonds with a faceted bead between them and are lined in milgrain beading. These curve up to frame and highlight the sizeable pearl. This would make an excellent dress ring or a unique engagement ring. Circa 1960s, British in origin.
