Art Deco No-Heat Burma Star Ruby and Diamond Ring

Three shining stars share top billing in this exceptional Art Deco treasure that dates back to the zenith of the period, circa the 1920s. At center stage, we have a gorgeous high-domed translucent pinkish-red cabochon no-heat Burma ruby, weighing 4.25 carats and imbued by Mother Nature with shimmering asterism (aka the star phenomenon). This enchanting gemstone is supported by a beautiful bright white and sparkling 1.00 carat transitional European-cut/round brilliant-cut diamond on one side and by a 1.06 carat round brilliant cut on the other. But the show doesn't stop there, not by a long shot! All three stones are magnificently presented in a hand-fabricated platinum mounting--a work of art itself--fashioned with decorative piercing, delicate millegraining, hand-engraved detailing, and embellished all around with small glittering European-cut diamonds, totaling 1.40 carats. Superlative! Total diamond weight, 3.46 carats. Currently ring size 6 3/4.
