Super Art Deco 18ct gold diamond trilogy ring, set with three graduated old cut diamonds in a swirling crossover design, with each stone held in a rubover setting on a platinum top. The central diamond sits slightly raised between two smaller stones.
What is a crossover ring?
A crossover, or “toi et moi,” design sets stones along two curving, overlapping lines of metal rather than a single straight row, giving a softer, more fluid look to the setting. This swirling style was especially popular in the early twentieth century and remains a distinctive way to display a small group of diamonds.
What does an old cut diamond mean?
Old cut refers to diamonds cut by hand before the modern brilliant cut was standardised in the 1920s, giving them a slightly different faceting pattern, a softer, warmer sparkle, and often a less perfectly round outline than a modern stone.
