Crafted with a solid 18K yellow gold shank and a platinum diamond-set head, the ring features five graduated natural \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/theteracollection.com\/blogs\/journal\/old-european-cut-diamonds-explained\"\u003eOld European Cut diamonds\u003c\/a\u003e arranged in a clean, symmetrical row.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is flanked by four progressively smaller diamonds, creating a balanced design that extends gently across the finger. Together, the five diamonds are estimated at approximately 0.15 carat total weight. Their higher crowns, small tables, softly rounded outlines, and broad antique faceting are consistent with Old European cutting, although the culets become difficult to see in the smallest stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ring’s appeal lies in its balanced simplicity. The graduated arrangement, low profile, and restrained geometry reflect the transition from the softer elegance of the Edwardian period toward the cleaner symmetry associated with early Art Deco jewelry. Delicate and easy to wear, it works beautifully as a petite engagement ring, anniversary ring, stacking ring, or understated antique diamond band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt A Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive Graduated Natural Old European Cut Diamonds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximately 0.15 Carat Total Weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid 18K Yellow Gold Shank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-Profile Setting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo Tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLate Edwardian with Early Art Deco Influence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCirca 1915–1925\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid 18K Yellow Gold Shank with Platinum Head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHallmarks:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stamped “18” and “PLAT”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late Edwardian with Early Art Deco Influence, Circa 1915–1925\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStones:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural Old European Cut Diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiamond Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Estimated at Approximately 1\/16 Carat with four graduated diamonds, 2 approximately 1\/32 carat and 2 approximately 1\/64 carat for a total carat weight of approximately .15 carats.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiamond Cut:\u003c\/strong\u003e Old European Cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.07 Grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Diamonds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ring is set with five graduated natural Old European Cut diamonds arranged in a balanced horizontal row.

This restrained geometry gives the ring a balanced appearance without the sharply angular lines associated with later Art Deco jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe platinum head provides a naturally white setting around the diamonds, while the solid 18K yellow gold shank adds warmth and contrast. This mixed-metal construction was commonly used in fine early twentieth-century jewelry, combining the strength and white appearance of platinum with the richness of high-karat yellow gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eViewed from the side, the individually formed settings create a lightly raised open gallery beneath the diamonds. The ring remains relatively low to the finger, giving it a practical and comfortable profile for regular wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design is simple and unembellished, relying on its graduated symmetry, mixed-metal contrast, and antique diamonds for its character. Its petite scale makes it especially well suited as an understated engagement ring, anniversary ring, stacking ring, or antique diamond band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWell preserved for an antique ring dating to approximately 1915–1925, this piece remains in good antique condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe solid 18K yellow gold shank retains an even profile and appears structurally sound. The platinum head retains its original graduated five-stone form, and the diamonds remain attractively aligned within their settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLight surface scratches, minor abrasions, and gentle signs of age may be visible under magnification, consistent with previous wear over approximately a century. The diamonds may display natural inclusions, slight irregularities, and variations in facet pattern characteristic of antique hand cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior hallmarks remain visible, including the “18” mark associated with the yellow gold shank and the “PLAT” mark identifying the platinum head. The platinum portion of the setting has also been confirmed through electronic metal testing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnlarged photography may reveal surface wear, natural inclusions, and subtle signs of age more readily than they are visible during normal viewing. Taken as a whole, the ring remains an appealing and wearable example of early twentieth-century mixed-metal diamond jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePhotography Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhotographed under soft-spectrum lighting and high magnification to accurately document the antique diamonds, hallmarks, mixed-metal construction, surface condition, and period details of the setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOld European Cut diamonds were individually cut by hand and may display softly irregular outlines, natural inclusions, and variations in facet pattern.
