An airy Edwardian dream in platinum, made in the 1910s. At the center is a very old, Old European cut diamond. Slightly warm in tone, with the most cheerful pastel dispersion (hello, soft yellows). There are visible white inclusions on the face. It continues to sparkle beautifully in an old world way, a broader and more gentle flash that you would expect from an antique cut. The setting feels lace‑light on the hand, but the construction is sturdy, the way the best antiques are. I can’t find any faults or dings in the ring’s structure, and it wears like a piece that’s been cared for on purpose. I love to imagine it as someone’s great‑grandmother’s ring. I love it even more that it can be cherished again, whether that means a betrothal or a promise to yourself.
