Impulse purchase! I am so, so happy with this one; I have never seen anything like it. Any info on the ring style, era, hallmark, or level of treatment suspected on stones would be appreciated. It is marked 750, and sold as pink sapphire, pink diamonds, and regular diamonds.

Fab! No idea of the answer to any of your questions, though similar styles pop up when I search for art deco rings. She looks like a lady to me (albeit upside down on your finger =)2). Great find.

I love it. And it looks spectacular with your band! So cool, I’d guess 1910-1940? 750 is 18K. Is that the mark you showed above? Or is that the hallmark? Can you get a better pic of that?

Yeah, this is the hallmark. Looks like CWC? I am not sure. I'm looking again and I'm not sure it's supposed to be letters. It could be a design or symbol. 037E6EAC-7594-4F07-B485-543A7B9478B1.png

What a beautiful find! And I think your wedding band worn with it is some kind of fate, because they are perfect together.

This is the most incredible ring!! It's called a "tiara" style, but this is very unusual and unique even within that style. I would call it Belle Epoque / Edwardian, around 1900-1920. GORGEOUS!! :kiss2: :kiss2: :kiss2:

This was my best guess as well. I can't find another example with a pink sapphire. I am so in love. <3 <3 <3

I feel like it is very obvious if the sapphire is natural or synthetic, but I just don't know which it is :lol: What would be the best/cheapest way to verify both the sapphire and at least one if the diamonds? I am in NYC and can easily bring it to a gemologist in the diamond district. Given the apparent age of the ring, I think an experienced appraiser would be able to determine treatment level on the stones without access to full lab equipment - right? If the ring is around 100 years old, the treatments on diamonds were limited, and these do not look like any "coated" diamonds I've seen. As far as I am aware, old pink synthetics are extremely uncommon, and neither stone is eye clean, making me suspect that they are natural.

* Drool!*

The mark might be an omega symbol flanked by two decorative flourishes?

Paired with my wedding band for maximum effect :D

Oh my gosh that band looks like it just belongs with that ring. It is so beautiful! Where did you find this beauty? I'm not sure but it seems that pink sapphire is unusual in antique pieces? Incredible.

This is soooo stunning!!! Well, another possibility is that some stones could be New and replaced so never assume though. Looks gorgeous and beautifully cut. Definitely take it to an appraiser to verify. Keep us posted please! Hope all checks out, what a stunner!!!

It's beautiful, it would be really cool to find out who made it. I'm so curious about it!
They look natural to me, but what do I know?

What a beautiful ring and I have never seen anything like it! Your wedding band looks like it was made to go with it. Clearly this was a purchase that was set in the stars. The pink sapphire is huge and magnificent as well!

Feeling like a queen today! Please ignore my dry and bleeding hands, lol. My sister says this ring reminds her of the Childlike Empress's headpiece. 49F7C159-1E66-4D23-AAED-5E8B92AC45D6.jpeg FC3D3DBE-E13F-4432-865B-C1325031BDE4.jpeg
