18K White Gold Diamond and Sapphire Art Deco Ring

This is a vintage crafted Art Deco ring, size 7, weighing 3.12 grams, fashioned from 18K white gold. The ring features a distinct central setting designed to hold two prominent stones. On the left, a single round diamond is securely set, exhibiting visible facets that sparkle. To its right, a vacant setting is clearly visible, indicating a missing stone, which the provided context specifies was also a diamond. Flanking these central stones on either side of the ring's head are baguette-cut blue sapphires, set horizontally, adding a contrasting splash of color. The shoulders of the ring and part of the band are intricately decorated with openwork filigree showcasing classic Art Deco geometric and stylized floral patterns. This delicate craftsmanship is a hallmark of the Art Deco period, known for its emphasis on symmetry, linear designs, and bold forms. The ring exhibits some signs of wear consistent with its vintage age, including minor surface scratches on the white gold and potential slight abrasions on the remaining diamond and sapphires. The most notable condition issue is the missing diamond, which would require replacement to restore the ring to its original intended design. The white gold material suggests a sophisticated aesthetic, and the 18K purity indicates a high-quality metal. The craftsmanship, particularly the filigree work, suggests a piece made with care and attention to detail. This piece embodies the elegance and distinctive style of the Art Deco era.
