18K White Gold  Diamond Art Deco Filigree Ring # 1-137

This beautiful 1920’s 18k white gold diamond ring is wonderfully unique. It was created using an 18K white gold setting with one center round diamond highlighted by a six-sided setting. Looking from a side view, you’ll notice a filigree setting.

The 1920’s and 30’s ushered in the Art Deco period where popular motifs made use of geometric and abstract designs and a dramatic interplay of shimmery colors. Emeralds and diamonds were widely used as embellishments.

Diamonds have been coveted and used to embellish jewelry and accessories throughout the ages; the Greeks wore them into battle believing them to symbolize "inconquerability". Diamonds are the birthstone of April and are given to commemorate 10th, 30th, and 60th anniversaries. They symbolize innocence.

Filigree looks lacy and delicate but the pieces were die-struck with such force that it caused the metal to become denser and stronger.
