French Art Deco Platinum & Diamond Set Ring

297H
290 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

This is a really pretty and unusual open work platinum ring. It is finely designed as the French always used to do. The decoration is the “millegrain” technique. This was developed in the late 19th century. It is from the French word “mille” for a thousand, and from “grain” as the same meaning in English. It refers to what appears to be hundreds of tiny beads upon a metal edge. Platinum is a hard metal so this process was particularly suited to it. The diamonds are bright white and very well matched. It would make a wonderful and unique engagement ring
