ABOUT:
Cuz you know I like them "crusty!" This French antique diamond half hoop is set with rose cut diamonds along the entire top half of the ring, giving the piece a wonderful texture and a great antique sparkle. You can feel and see the domed tops of the rose cuts cropping out of the ring face.

I also have a full eternity band that this stacks beautifully with as seen in photos.

This one is a true half hoop with the stones running all the way along the top, reaching to the adjacent finger so when the hand is closed, it appears as an eternity until you flip the hand over and see the back is smooth.

French hallmark for 18k gold.

Antique box not included. Please note the measurements as I have small fingers and it can be difficult to determine scale from pictures.

SIZE & MEASUREMENTS:

It is a size 6 1/4, slightly over but does not reach the 6 1/2 line on my mandrel. It weighs 1.8 grams.
There are 12 little diamonds, each measuring about 2mm.
The band is 2.6mm wide north to the south on the finger tapering just about .3mm thinner at the back, and it stands 1.8mm tall off the finger to the crowns of the diamonds.

IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:

Please note the measurements as they are not huge diamonds and the zoomed photos I am required to present sometimes make it look larger. But a beautiful sparkly stacker. There are several worn prongs but the piece was re-tipped so that each stone has a full prong on each side. I don't typically recommend daily wear for any of my 100+ year old pieces. It is suitable as is for wear though, with none of the stones moving and with the reinforcement that was already done, despite others being worn back, some completely, from what they originally were. I actually love this work - as it is a case where they did the minimal possible to add security to the settings, without over working it or making the piece like new.

There is some lotion buildup under magnification in the recesses but I don't like to over clean my pieces with small stones.

The stones are well matching but definitely show their age and antiqueness. Four are chipped with some small frosty spots. One shows loss to two girdle edges leaving a small gap between the edge of the stone and the setting. This is seen mostly under magnification because the stones are small. To the eye they all fill the settings so with normal wear there is no glaring loss, just more of an untamed hand chiseled look to the stones with frostiness, some from the cutting as well. Some faint frosty inclusions here and there too, some rough and frosty edges but again they are small stones.

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. : )
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!
