Masterpiece Astoria Fancy Vivid Yellow Radiant Cut Diamond Ring 3.02ct in Platinum & 18ct Yellow Gold

An energising 3.02ct fancy vivid yellow radiant cut diamond has been secured by four hand shaped 18ct yellow gold claws as the centrepiece of this spectacular Masterpiece Astoria setting ring. Inspired by the Art Deco architecture of 1930s New York city this rare central diamond has been expertly complemented by precision cut tapered baguette and triangular corner cut diamonds (0.81cts) that define the wide angular shoulders of the design. Further baguette cut stones top and tail the centre stone with small sparking brilliants adding the perfect finishing touch. Lustrous and durable platinum has been used to showcase these diamonds, which expertly draw the eye towards the delectable centre stone. Designed by a member of the Pragnell family this setting reminds us of the monumental wall lanterns found on the landmark Waldorf-Astoria hotel which has dominated Fifth Avenue in New York since the early 1930s.
