MARGUERITE DIAMOND RING, 0.38 CT

The trompe-l’œil effect of the daisy ring

The illusion setting technique stems from a specific technical aim in the history of jewellery: to set several gemstones so close together that the eye perceives the volume of a single central stone. This pre-owned piece illustrates this approach with seven brilliant-cut diamonds totalling approximately 0.38 carats. Arranged in a rosette pattern, they create a visual impact equivalent to a solitaire weighing over 1.50 carats. Crafted in 18-carat white gold, this classic piece utilises geometry to capture light consistently.

Architecture and jewellery craftsmanship

The design is based on a masterful technical balance. The ring head is structured by an openwork setting that allows light to pass through the diamond settings. The seven gemstones are held in place by a network of discreet prongs, the outer prongs of which form a slightly cushion-shaped silhouette. The band is slender, with a pronounced taper at the shoulder, giving the setting a lovely lightness when worn whilst drawing attention to the central motif.

Why choose this second-hand daisy ring

Opting for this classic model second-hand is a wise choice. This purchase offers access to traditional gem-setting craftsmanship, providing a generous three-dimensional effect at a reasonable price. Reproducing such a design today with such precise stone setting would require a far greater investment in craftsmanship. It represents a choice of a reassuring aesthetic and a bold presence, without compromising on the quality of the materials.
