Art Deco 1.39 Carat Old Oval Cut Diamond Engagement Ring, circa 1940

Holy moly. The gloriously white and lively oval shaped old cut diamond is set laterally within the most wonderfully extravagant mount. The centre stone is secured by a six split claws. Each of the graduating shoulders is set with eight eight-cut diamonds and very finely and intricately milgrained. A further ten (five either side) are set at the base of the gallery, lending extra bling to an already dazzling ring.
