About the Item
Spectacular Vintage 1940s Retro Burma Ruby
Diamond Cocktail Ring
Step back into the glamour of the 1940s with this extraordinary Retro-era cocktail ring, showcasing a natural, untreated Burmese ruby of the rarest quality. The oval ruby, weighing 1.51 carats and measuring 6.6 x 6.5 x 3.9 mm, displays a vibrant medium-dark pigeon blood red hue—considered the finest color for rubies. With VS1 clarity for a Type II gemstone and only a minute natural surface fissure at one edge facet, the ruby is accompanied by a gemological laboratory report for authenticity and quality.
Encircling the ruby in a dramatic sunburst design are 16 baguette and 6 round brilliant cut diamonds, totaling approximately 0.70 carats. The diamonds are crisp and bright, graded in the white G–H color range with VS–SI1 clarity, adding sparkle and brilliance to the fiery ruby center.
Expertly crafted in 18K white gold, this bold design measures 23 x 17 mm (0.91 x 0.67”) across the top, with a total weight of 6.57 grams. Currently a European size 52 (US 6 / UK L–M), the ring captures the essence of vintage sophistication and Retro design.
A scarce collector’s treasure, this jewel is not only a striking statement piece but also a rare opportunity to own an authentic Burmese ruby from the golden age of cocktail rings.
