6.77ct Old European Cut Diamond Solitaire Ring | Platinum & 18K Gold | L-M SI1 | Antique

A solitaire of exceptional scale and presence, this platinum and 18karat yellow gold ring centers a 6.77-carat old European cut diamond measuring 11.90 x 11.85 x 7.25mm, graded L-M color and SI1 clarity. Despite its color grade, the stone faces up bright and white in person, a well-documented characteristic of the old European cut, whose elevated crown, smaller table, and deeper pavilion return light differently than modern brilliant cuts, effectively masking body color. The white gold claw setting elevates the stone dramatically above a polished yellow gold shank, a classic two-tone configuration that flatters the antique cut beautifully. Old European cut diamonds of this diameter are seldom encountered in the open market. Condition excellent. An appraisal is available upon request.
