An antique, Art Deco era engagement ring, made in 18k white gold and set with a striking 1/2 carat old European cut diamond. This diamond is bead-set into the ring's hex shaped head. The filigree setting is visually delicate but substantially made, featuring an openwork gallery and shoulders that are deeply engraved with a wheat pattern. French-cut, created sapphire accents, in rub over settings, also adorn the ring's shoulders. The ring's slender shank tapers from the shoulder toward the base. Wheat is a traditional motif in engagement rings— because it symbolizes both fertility and productivity, it carries within it hopes for a fruitful partnership.
