Vintage 2.76ct Burmese Sapphire and Diamond Ring, c.1950s

A strong art deco influence is evident in this fabulous circa 1950s sapphire and diamond ring. This wonderful mid-century piece showcases a stunning 2.76 carat, transparent blue, cushion cut Burmese sapphire amid a shimmering grain set border of round brilliant cut diamonds. The diamonds have a combined weight of 0.65 carat and are estimated G in colour and VS in clarity. The ring’s remarkable sapphire has been independently certified by the Gubelin gemmological laboratory as natural, showing no evidence of heat treatment. A single row of diamonds lies to the north and south of the sapphire. Stepped shoulders, which graduate from five diamonds to three, put the sparkling finishing touches to this ring’s vintage platinum setting.
