At its center rests a beautiful natural saltwater pearl, prized for its gentle luster and subtle glow. Measuring approximately 7.70 mm, the pearl offers a refined presence, embodying the timeless sophistication that made pearls so cherished in the early 1900s.
Encircling the pearl is a radiant halo of ten Old European cut diamonds totaling approximately 2.00 carats. These hand-cut diamonds display broad facets and a warm, glowing sparkle, characteristic of antique cuts designed to shimmer beautifully in low light. With their G–H color and SI clarity, the diamonds create a luminous frame that enhances the pearl’s soft radiance while adding depth and brilliance to the overall design.
Crafted in a classic combination of 18k yellow gold and silver, the ring reflects traditional antique construction, where silver was often used to set diamonds for maximum brightness, while yellow gold provided warmth and structure. The result is a harmonious balance of materials that feels both elegant and historically authentic.
Dating to the early 1900s, this ring captures the romance and refinement of its era—graceful, feminine, and rich in character. A true heirloom piece, it is ideal for collectors and lovers of antique jewelry who appreciate natural pearls, historic diamond cuts, and timeless design. See less
