Fancy Intense Yellow Diamond Solitaire with Diamond Shoulders 2.49ct in Platinum

A spring yellow radiant cut fancy intense yellow diamond (2.49ct) has been double claw set into 18ct yellow gold as the centrepiece of this striking ring. Inspired by the strong lines and geometric forms of the famed Art Deco period (1911-1940) this eye-catching diamond has been expertly reset from an antique jewel that had become too worn to repair. Statement shoulders complete the design, and have been set with arrangements of rub over set geometric baguette cut diamonds (0.70ct). Fancy coloured diamonds have been coveted by connoisseurs and collectors for hundreds of years with their ethereal adamantine lustre captivating all who gaze upon it. Only one in every ten thousand diamonds mined possesses a fancy colour, with Fancy Intense Yellow examples being particularly sought after. The diamond set into this ring is accompanied by certification from the GIA (Gemmological Institute of America) to confirm that it is a completely natural example.
