The most stunning original Art Deco engagement ring set with a superbly rare Octagonal Cut Diamond to the centre in a bezel and mill grain setting. When it comes to finding original 1930s rings, a piece as beautiful as this is a truly rare occurrence, from the unusual and hard to find centre Diamond cut to the detail and engraving, this ring is an exceptional piece of history. Set with Old Cut Diamonds to the slightly raised setting around the centre Diamond and then a row of larger Old Cut Diamonds to the edge in a square frame with tapered corners. Three further Diamonds are set to each shoulder with the whole setting being finished with mill grain beading to the edges. The band has the most exquisite scrolled hand engraving to each edge, giving so much detail from every angle.
Made in Platinum with a makers mark for A.P.
The Octagonal Cut Diamond is a form of Step Cut Diamond with straight linear facets which give a 'hall of mirrors' effect, probably developed around the same period as the Asscher Cut Diamond in the early 1900s.

Proposing is one of the most exciting moments in life but also one of the most daunting! Once you have found a ring there are a few options if you don't know their ring size:
- Wait until you've proposed and have the ring altered afterwards. That way you can get their finger measured accurately and get the sizing right first time.
- Measure a ring they already wear. Usually there is a size or twos difference for the same finger on each hand so this isn't always the most accurate method.
Yes! We use plain and discreet outer packaging for our parcels so no one will know what's inside. We are however required to add our senders information to the back of the parcel which is on a very small label.
