The radical aesthetic of this Chopard ring
Launched in 1999, the Ice Cube collection from the House of Chopard marks a bold stylistic breakthrough by drawing inspiration from geometric perfection and the sharpness of ice. This second-hand ring embodies this minimalist vision with absolute elegance. Forged in 18-carat white gold, it has a structured profile that instantly catches the light. At the centre of this architectural composition, a hollowed-out square houses 4 brilliant-cut diamonds totalling approximately 0.04 carat. The inclusion of reference 823789 in our catalogue offers a rare opportunity to acquire a major contemporary signature, whose icy, sophisticated allure dresses the hand with singular assurance.
Architecture and jewellery expertise
The strength of this piece lies in its massive, generous setting, 4 millimetres wide. The ring is composed of an uninterrupted succession of square facets with a full mirror polish that multiplies the metallic reflections. The technical mastery of the workshops is particularly evident in the treatment of the central motif. The 4 colourless diamonds are set flush with the metal using a surgically precise grain setting. This method holds the stones edge to edge, protecting their table and preserving the purity of the straight lines. The absence of prominent prongs ensures a perfectly smooth profile.
Why this second-hand ring
Opting for this model from the Swiss watchmaker-jeweller on the pre-owned market is a particularly savvy move. The remarkable density of the gold used for this creation contrasts sharply with contemporary production, which is becoming lighter and lighter. Buying this piece means you can afford a statutory volume of precious metal and rigorous jewellery craftsmanship, while avoiding the ever-increasing costs associated with new craftsmanship. It is a tangible investment in a design with identity, designed to be worn every day without compromise.
