This 1930 Art Deco solitaire ring holds an old pear cut diamond with a GIA report stating an I colour and VS2 clarity. The centre stone weighs 1.50 carat and measures nearly 11mm long, secured in a platinum collet with a V-prong claw at the tip and double claws at the back. Smooth tapered shoulders flow into a slim yellow gold band. The silver-toned metal of the setting contrasts with the polished yellow gold shank, while the elongated diamond presents distinct faceting across its surface. Ideal for everyday wear or special occasions, the ring sits on a finger as a classic piece of period jewellery. The setting raises the stone from the finger, while the slim shank offers a comfortable fit. Suitable for a collector of vintage diamond jewellery, the ring pairs precious metals with a certified centre stone from the Art Deco period.

1930s Art Deco ring design is recognised for clean lines, geometric balance, and the transition toward combining yellow gold bands with white metal or platinum settings to enhance stone brilliance.

Rings from this period were commonly crafted using 18 carat yellow gold, platinum, or palladium, holding natural diamonds faceted into classic cuts including brilliant, emerald, and pear cuts.

Authentic period pieces typically display period-accurate fineness hallmarks, hand-faceted stone proportions, and specific metalwork techniques such as hand-carved galleries or tailored V-prong claw settings.

Vintage jewellery can be styled within a bedroom or dressing room interior by arranging pieces on velvet trays, marble stands, or small antique brass ring dishes atop a vanity.

Clean the setting using warm water, mild liquid soap, and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding abrasive chemicals. Periodic inspections by a professional jeweller ensure the claws remain secure.
