Antique, Art Deco old-cut diamond three-stone engagement ring 1950s

Antique, Art Deco old-cut diamond three-stone engagement ring 1950sProvenance Original to c. 1925, this old cut diamond three stone is a refined example of Art Deco craftsmanship. My favourite thing about this ring is that it combines both a round old cut diamond with two cushion shape old mine cut diamonds. The old mine cut is one of the earliest diamond cuts, and is characterised by its deep proportions, broad and unevenly distributed facets, large cullet and softly rounded cushion shape outline.
