Art Deco Circa 1920 18K Gold & Platinum Old Mine Diamond French Three Stone Ring
Three old mine-cut diamonds set low into a sculpted gold band.
We love the clean profile of this circa-1920 French domed ring, crafted in 18 karat yellow gold with three old mine-cut diamonds set in platinum. A larger center diamond is flanked by two smaller stones, creating a balanced line of diamonds across the finger.
The combination of warm gold, cool platinum and old-cut diamonds gives the ring presence without feeling formal.
Its substantial shape makes it equally strong worn alone or stacked with your favorite pieces.

Styling Notes:
Wear it alone as a substantial antique diamond band or stack it with your favorite rings. The low-profile setting makes it an easy piece for everyday wear.
Provenance:
During the early twentieth century, platinum was frequently paired with yellow gold in diamond jewelry. Its strength allowed diamonds to be set securely while the white metal created a bright transition between the stones and the surrounding gold.
The ring bears French owl and mascaron guarantee marks for its 18 karat gold and platinum content, indicating that it was assayed through the French hallmarking system.
Condition:
Very good antique condition with light surface scratches consistent with age and wear. The diamonds present well under normal viewing. Diamond weights are approximate, and the stones have not been independently graded.
