Mid-century French avant-garde jewelry design, this rare and highly collectible vintage ring was crafted by the jeweler Jean Vendôme (Jean Tuhdarian, 1930–2017). Curated exclusively for the Antique Jewelry Finds collection, Vendôme was celebrated as the pioneer of modern sculptural jewelry. This particular piece offers a captivating departure from his usual bold, asymmetric gemstone compositions, showcasing a sleek, architectural double-band structure with beautifully disciplined, clean lines.
Instantly recognizable to the trained collector's eye, this geometric, square-shaped ring is crafted in solid 18k yellow gold. It is meticulously pavé-set with a striking combination of 24 brilliant-cut diamonds and 4 crisp baguette-cut diamonds, totaling approximately 0.70 carats. Exhibiting the ultimate tier of gemstone quality, the diamonds boast an estimated, icy-white D color and flawless VVS clarity.
Designed with a bold yet sophisticated silhouette, this versatile statement piece functions perfectly as a unisex ring. It is intended to be worn as a prestigious pinky ring and bears the highly coveted, authentic "Jean Vendôme" maker's signature hallmark alongside the French Eagle's head guarantee.
⚠️ Important Sizing Note: Due to its unique square double-band engineering, this authentic Jean Vendôme ring cannot be resized. It is a perfect fit for a finger size US 4.5 (FR 48 / UK I 1/2).
