Quote from seller
the ring is in wonderful shape but it is old - we 100% guarantee our rings to your satisfaction
This Art Deco-style ring is fashioned in 14k yellow gold and features a high quality natural diamond solitaire. The Old European cut natural diamond carries .31 carat weight, VS2 clarity, and G color and is ported from the underside for enhanced brilliance and sparkle.

Thanks

It’s a lovely ring. Is the diamond certified ie who decided the colour and clarity grade?
There nothing wrong with buying an uncertified diamond but if the report is done by a jeweller while set its just an “estimation” so the diamond could actually be smaller, a lower colour and a lower clarity grade.
The ring is in good condition and the prongs look secure so depending on price.
As a reference, a .31 carat diamond of similiar quality from Blue Nile is around $600 and a similiar, but new, setting from Ivy & Rose in 14kt white gold is about $250 and setting say $50. So you could buy a certified diamond in a new Art Deco style ring for around $900.
So if the price is under $800 it is a good buy, if it’s over $1,000 they want too much in my opinion.
