The distinctive look of this Chopard ring
The Happy Diamonds collection was launched in 1976 when designer Ronald Kurowski conceived the idea of loose diamonds to replicate the natural movement of waterfalls in the Black Forest. This pre-owned Chopard ring perfectly exemplifies this technical innovation. The central setting features three brilliant-cut diamonds with an estimated total weight of between 0.15 and 0.17 carats. The gemstones selected by the House feature an extra-white colour and a clarity grade ranging from IF to VS. The entire structure is crafted from 18K yellow gold. Reference 82/4611 ranks amongst the benchmarks of contemporary jewellery.
Architecture and jewellery craftsmanship
The architecture of this setting is based on a precise geometric design. The body of the ring is divided into two symmetrical concave prongs to provide stable support for the heart-shaped central setting. Within the design lies a technical assembly of two perfectly parallel sapphire crystals. This space between them allows the three diamonds to slide freely at the centre of the design. Each stone is held in place by an individual closed-set setting in yellow gold, a method chosen to protect the glass from scratches caused by the regular movements of the hand. All metal surfaces feature a polished finish with a uniform mirror-like sheen.
Why choose this pre-owned ring
Purchasing this piece from the certified pre-owned market is a wise decision. The Happy Diamonds collection requires complex craftsmanship combining goldwork with the integration of transparent protective materials. Opting for a pre-owned piece allows you to incorporate an iconic design into your personal collection. The substantial amount of yellow gold gives this setting structural balance and a striking presence on the finger, particularly when compared to the costs of contemporary craftsmanship.
