Item Details
Description
  • Item: Antique Vintage toi et moi ring with diamonds and pearl
  • Condition: very good condition
  • Country of origin: Although it does not carry any legible control marks we believe this to be of Belgian origin.

  • Diamonds: One old European cut diamond with an estimated weight of approx. 0.22 crt. (approximate color and clarity: F/G, vs/si) and eight rose cut diamonds and senailles . A senaille is a simplified rose cut diamond, a small diamond chip with perhaps a few polished facets. We do not have the weight of the rose cuts diamonds nor the senailles which is normal in our trade when it comes to rose cut diamonds and senailles.

    In this 18K yellow gold Victorian "toi et moi"-engagement ring from 1900, an old European cut diamond and a pearl are set side by side as if Cupid caught two unified souls and bound them together in between the two twirling tapered ends of a shank with a total of eight rose cut diamonds set in white precious metal.

    Style: Late-Victorian - Victorian decorative arts refers to the style of decorative arts during the Victorian era. The Victorian era is known for its eclectic revival and interpretation of historic styles and the introduction of cross-cultural influences from the middle east and Asia in furniture, fittings, and Interior decoration. Victorian design is widely viewed as having indulged in a regrettable excess of ornament. The Arts and Crafts movement, the aesthetic movement, Anglo-Japanese style, and Art Nouveau style have their beginnings in the late Victorian era.
