I love the older Asscher Cut Diamonds like that. It appears to be a turn of the century piece. The clover design might suggest Irish origin. Filgree setting with the Irish Clovers and Deep Thick Asscher Cut Diamond center stone ( which may make it more weight & increase value) and miner cut rounds on the sides. Lovely Ring!

That is no asscher cut IMO. It''s an old mine cut or some variation thereof.

Monica: I would bring it to an appraiser that specializes in antique diamonds. They will be able to tell you far more than we can with a few pictures. Great ring!

I hope I age as gracefully as this ring!

I love the open cutlet. You should take it a good appraiser for sure.

Amazing is right! Yowza!! I''d have to agree with SDL that it looks like an Old Miner to me. The square shape, chunky facets and super high crown. It''s absolutely stunning!!

I''m also no expert, but I have looked at a lot of antique rings, and I''m fairly certain this is a large french cut. It''s beautiful.

Check out this similar ring from Lang.
