CHAMPAGNE Old European Cut DIAMOND Eye Clean .5 Carat Antique Solitiare Ring Fancy Light Brown French Platinum Skinny Band Engagement OEC

ABOUT:

Another sweetie old cut diamond solitaire ready for regular wear! This one I went for of course for the hues! This eye clean old cut is fancy light brown champagne in color. A French antique piece that I found in Paris, the platinum setting is intentional to provide a contrast to the hue of the diamond.

It is lovely, subtle, and seems to change color from room to room. I showed it with other whiter diamonds for comparison and in varying lighting conditions so feel free to check my website for additional photos. It seems to face up whiter in direct sun.

This timeless sweetie also has the added bonus of having excellent prongs making it ready for daily wear. A beautiful stacker, right hand ring, anniversary or engagement ring. I love it with a buttery yellow gold band in a mixed metals stack.

The setting is also quite lovely with the long prongs to hold the diamond up so that it can catch the light. The little ruffled halo of platinum around the base of the setting serves as an illusion setting to make the diamond appear even larger on the hand, while also giving it a lovely design element.

French hallmark for platinum and a partial goldsmith stamp.
Antique box not included. Please note the measurements as I have small fingers and it can be difficult to determine scale from pictures.

MEASUREMENTS:
Size 4 1/4
For sizing - I am sorry I don't offer it. Best to discuss with your local jeweler who would be doing the work, to see how far they would feel comfortable in sizing (sometimes you can email or text them photos for feedback).

The diamond is about 5.1mm. I do not remove stones from their settings for exact carat weight but it's a little over half a carat estimated, about .53 carat measuring while set.

The ring face is 8mm north south and stands 5.4mm off the finger.
The ring weight 2.15 grams.

IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
No eye visible issues, a speck here or there but a very clean stone in a sturdy setting with a fabulous hue!

Please also note that I take some photos / videos in the sunshine because it captures the lovely color and sparkle, but it also highlights any surface wear, scratches, abrasions, buildup or inclusions that can catch the light, making these things appear worse than they would with normal day to day wear. : ) Hopefully the pics in all lightning conditions help as they serve as part of the description.

Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned and in estate condition. They will have patina, surface wear, a few small nicks. These pieces may also have evidence of a sizing, some build up around the stones and / or inclusions seen under magnification, typical for antique pieces. I have mentioned any noticeable issues above and they are all still wearable and eager to be loved and accepted for many years to come, (the preservation of antique jewelry, even those with signs of their age and history, is important to me. : ) There are no dark spots to the gold, it was just difficult to photograph because it is so shiny and mirrored that it reflects its surroundings including the green trees out the window.
But - Please note due to age, this piece is not in mint condition. Pictures also serve as part of the description and condition report so please utilize the zoom feature which will magnify any wear significantly more than what is visible to the eye while wearing : )

Thanks so much for looking at my items!
