The free-spirited Happy Diamonds collection
First introduced in 1976, Chopard’s concept of moving diamonds is inspired by the way light reflects off water droplets. This pre-owned ring embodies this aesthetic through a central heart-shaped motif. The rim is set with 15 diamonds totalling 0.25 carats, whilst a 0.05-carat free-standing diamond sits at the centre. The combination of steel and 18K yellow gold gives this model, reference 828402-4013, a bold and timeless look.
Architecture and jewellery craftsmanship
The setting stands out for its flexible structure, reminiscent of watch meshwork. It comprises three rows of polished, rounded links, with steel elements framing the central gold band. The heart motif features a precise grain-set arrangement for the stones along the outline. At the centre, the moving diamond is held in place by a yellow gold bezel setting, sliding freely between two transparent sapphire crystals.
Why choose this pre-owned ring
Purchasing this discontinued model allows you to acquire a technical design rarely found in contemporary collections. The complexity of an articulated ring band requires specific craftsmanship.
