Gold ring with an old mine cut diamond, 1950s

This exceptional ring with a large, floral form is a true gem of jewelry from the 1950s. Its centerpiece is a diamond with an extremely rare and unusual "old mine" cut. This antique diamond is distinguished by its square shape with soft, curved edges, reminiscent of modern cushion-cut diamonds. Old mine cuts, popular in the 18th and 19th centuries, were hand-made, which gives each diamond a unique character. These diamonds often have thick, uneven facets and a subtly asymmetrical shape, which adds to their unique charm. The design of the ring refers to the trends of the time, combining classic elegance with a floral motif characteristic of the 1950s.
