Engaged!!! my beautiful art deco e-ring!!

[les12]

Just got engaged last night and wanted to share my gorgeous antique ring with you all! Some stats: center diamond is a 1.4 ct RB, color H, does show some warmth in some of these pics. There is a row of 5 small RBs above and below the center, and 5 baguettes on each side, with small sapphires on the outside edge of each. The small RBs and baguettes total approx. 0.54 ct, and I am not sure the exact weight of the sapphires, they are tiny

The ring is a bit big on me, I need to get it resized, my ring finger is a 4.5 and I assume the ring is just a bit larger than a 5.

Enjoy!

What a gorgeous & unique ring! Where did your fiance find such a ring? Did you say whether it was WG or Platinum? More pix please!! Congrats!

 

[les12]

thanks westjenn! It''s platinum, circa 1920s. We found it at a local antique jewelry store. I am in love! I''m trying to perfect the picture taking but it''s more difficult than I thought! I''ll post more pics soon!

Your ring is STUNNING!!! You're very lucky to have found such a beautiful ring! The setting is so interesting, and the center stone (an OEC? -- looks like an open culet in your 7th photo) is gorgeous!!

Congratulations on your engagement!! And, be careful while driving!! You're going to be staring at it at stop lights when you notice how the sun hits it just right!!!

 

[Luckyeshe]

What a totally unique and beautiful ring! It''s awesome!!! I love all the baguettes and sapphire details!! Absolutely gorgeous!!

 

[blackberry16]

WOW! I think that is so unique. People will comment everywhere you go. Congrats on your engagement!

 

[chiquitapet]

WOW!! Amazing and unique ring!! Congratulations!!

 

[les12]

Thanks so much y''all! Loves Vintage, I am not 100% sure, but I do think the center stone is an OEC, and yes there is a very small culet, you have a good eye! And yes, I''ll try to be careful while driving!
Blackberry, I haven''t really worn it anywhere out yet, so I haven''t had any strangers comment on it. I''m really excited to go to work tomorrow and see if people notice my new addition! I work in retail and I have a few regular customers, so it will be fun to see some familiar faces and share my excitement with them.

I''m just so happy! It''s been a great weekend!!!
