Art Deco Approximately/Exactly Diamond Band
in 18k Gold & Platinum
* * SOLD * *
A charming, Art Deco era, diamond-set band, modeled in 18k gold and platinum, whose face is decorated with a series of three-dimensional shapes that resemble a tilde, and a four apostrophes. These shapely, platinum punctuation marks hang together on the ring face— they are set in a cocked manner, and held together by discreet welds, so the arrangement remains light and airy. The tilde, and the apostrophes, are finished with fine, milgrained details. The ring's eleven single cut diamonds are bead set into these forms. The ring's undergallery is decorated with tiny, circular spacers; its slender shank tapers toward the base. This is a wonderful, unusual wedding or stacking band— it would be ideal for someone with inclinations toward literature, grammar, or lettering.
Interesting that the tilde symbol means approximately, while quotes are used to communicate exact language!
