Art Deco 4.23 Carat Old Cut Diamond & Ruby Target Ring, French, circa 1940
The most awesome Art Deco diamond ring. The centre stone – and old European cut – is hypnotically beautiful; bright, internally clean and, crucially, very, very big! A halo of thirty-five pinkish red rubies surround the diamond in a channel setting, atop a intricate hand-carved gallery. A masterpiece.
