Art Nouveau 18k GIA Ceylon No Heat Sapphire & Diamond Ring

An incredible sapphire and diamond ring from the Art Nouveau (ca1890’s) era! Crafted in 18k vibrant yellow gold, this ring features a central, prong-set, oval cut sapphire.

Each end of the centerpiece features a large, prong-set, old European cut diamonds, which have an approximate total carat weight of 1.50ctw. The sparkling stones display I/J color and VS2-SI1 clarity. The gallery of the ring features a whimsical scrolling-motif cutout design, and the shoulders of the ring feature texturizing engravings. The remainder of the band is smooth and simple. The ring is accompanied by a GIA (Gemological Institute of America) Report #2245096719, which provides more information on the sapphire.
