About the Item

Graded O-P in color with SI1 clarity, the center diamond displays slightly brownish tone. Its high crown and broad facets give the gem a distinctive profile.

This cocktail ring is made of 18 karat yellow gold (stamped) and features a 5.23-carat Old European cut diamond (O-P color, SI1 clarity). The additional diamonds are Old European cut, K-L color, VS clarity, total weight approximately 2.28 carats. The diamond ring width is 1/2” (1.3 cm). It weighs 18.4 grams. As the ring is equipped with the inner sizing band, it fits size 6.5-8. The vintage ring is stamped with two unidentified hallmarks. About Mid-Century Jewelry Design: Mid-century jewelry design, spanning roughly from the 1940s through the 1960s, emerged from a world in transition. Post-war optimism, expanding global travel, and rapid advances in technology all shaped a style defined by bold geometry, sculptural goldwork, and a drive for innovation. Designers experimented with volume, texture, and movement, often embracing abstract forms, futuristic lines, and unexpected materials. At its core, mid-century jewelry reflected a cultural shift toward modernity and a desire to break from pre-war traditions. Today, mid-century jewelry has surged back into the spotlight, prized for its distinctive character and wearable artistry. High-end auction houses regularly spotlight mid-century icons, while fashion editors and celebrities lean into the era’s bold gold, whimsical motifs, and statement shapes. As modern fashion cycles continue embracing individuality and sculptural elegance, mid-century design remains not just relevant but deeply coveted. It’s a timeless chapter of design history resonating with a new generation.
