The essence of this Cartier Tank ring
The appeal of this design lies in its precise and distinctive geometry. At the centre of this pre-owned ring sits a 0.25-carat princess-cut diamond. Its square lines complement the minimalist aesthetic of the setting. Inspired by Cartier’s famous watch, this 18-carat white gold piece exudes a distinct architectural elegance. The reference 88RSD captures the spirit of 1997 with timeless precision, offering a pre-owned piece of jewellery with understated yet assertive charm.
Architecture and jewellery craftsmanship
The precision of this setting is evident in its unique mounting. The diamond is held in place by a precise tension setting, nestled between two solid gold sides without any prongs. This technique exposes the sides of the stone and allows light to pass through the bezel for optimal brilliance. The ring shank, measuring 3.35 mm in width, features a flat profile and a rectangular cross-section. The mirror-polished surface subtly catches the light.
