Old Cut Diamond Toi et Moi Ring 0.42ct in 18ct White Gold and Platinum

A chic 18ct white gold and diamond Toi et Moi cross over ring that has been inspired by the Edwardian period. Two sparkling old cut diamonds (0.83cts) have been securely claw set forming the centrepiece of this classic ring. Slim shoulders elegantly curve into the centre section between both stones, catching the eye with a richly polished sheen. Inspired by antique examples from the Edwardian period (1901-1910) this design is a classic example of a Toi et Moi ring. Derived from the French term meaning “you and me”, it perfectly symbolises the pair of diamonds that feature at the centre of the design. Hugely popular as an engagement ring style during the 19th-century and early 20th-centuries the two stones represented the two lovers joining together. Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II of Denmark wears an outstanding Van Cleef & Arpels diamond Toi et Moi ring that was presented to her on her engagement to Henri Laborde de Monpezat in 1967.
