Antique Edwardian engagement ring collet-set with two old European-cut diamonds within a  calibré-cut emerald and rose-cut diamond leaf design mount. Set in platinum and 18K gold. Circa 1918

A wonderful combination of Edwardian details including the mixed metal and leaf motif detail. The emerald accents nod to the Art Deco era to come. 

Diamond and gold mining has caused devastation in areas such as Africa, wreaking havoc on delicate ecosystems and communities. Choosing to go vintage, you are eliminating the need for more mining and lessening the demand for new diamonds.
