Antique French Art Deco Large Verneuil Ruby and Diamond Engagement Ring

Antique French Art Deco Large Verneuil Ruby and Diamond Engagement Ring

This antique French Art Deco large Verneuil ruby and diamond engagement ring in platinum and 18ct white gold from 1920 is a stunning French solitaire with an oval cut lab produced ruby, which is worth its weight of nearly 20 carats in love. The white brilliance of the three baguette cut diamonds on each side intensifies this gem in its elaborate setting as the snow does with a crystalized burgundy rose blooming in midwinter. Which snow white will kiss this ring out of its winter?
