A truly unique and lovely ring evocative of the glamour and geometric precision of the Art Deco era. The head of this ring, featuring crisp and bright old cut diamonds and rich candy-coloured rubies, dates to the 1920s, though it has since been spruced up with some minor cosmetic work to the face (retipping and milgrain) and a new shank that was added c.1990, per the British hallmarks. The old stones show character and some age, though the style feels sharply modern (as so much Art Deco design does!) and the refurbishment has given the head of the ring a new lease on life.

Good refurbished condition. Milgrain and polish have been refreshed. Moderate signs of wear to stones.
