An incredible antique diamond cocktail ring set in platinum. This extraordinary ring has a square shaped top with five old mine cut diamonds set in a floral shape. A centre diamond is bead set with four petals around it, each set with an old mine cut diamond. A row of milgrain beading outlines the flower shape making it more pronounced within the square shaped top. Between each of the petals is a beaded design.

The shoulders are set with three diamonds per side which taper in size going down the band. A simple lined design under the diamond setting holds the diamonds off the finger and allows light in. The shank is a half round design with a curved outside and flat interior. The diamonds are all old mine cuts with very steep crowns, very small tables, and large open culets. These diamonds were hand cut in the mid to late 1800s. The design of this ring dates later, around 1920s - 1940s.
