Description: A touch of history ... Typical Art Nouveau diamond engagement ring. Object group: rings Country of origin: France Style: Art Nouveau Style specifics: Art Nouveau - The floral ornaments and botanical designs are very typical for the Art Nouveau style. Also the use of curvilinear lines is typical for this period. Period: 1900 Source of inspiration: mother nature Material: 18K yellow gold and platinum, although most of this jewel is in yellow gold, the diamonds are set in platinum. This finds it origin in a much older period where it was common for diamonds to be set in silver Extra information: engagement ring - An engagement ring is a finger ring of no generally accepted form that is given by a man to his fiancée as a token of marriage engagement, in the manner of the earlier betrothal ring, and indistinguishable in form or style. In recent years such rings have normally been set with a gemstone, usually a diamond (or any stone other than the ill-reputed opal), as a solitaire, of varying sizes, cuts, styles, and cost, but in the 19th century some were set with a pearl. In the same century the custom arose in England of separate engagement ring and wedding ring, and in very recent years such rings have sometimes been made en suite as a matching pair of similar style.

Birthstones: Diamond is the birthstone (or month stone) for Hallmarks: French origin since 1838 - eagle's head - We are sure of the origin of this jewel because of the control mark for 18K gold representing an eagle's head (that was in use in France from about 1838).
