The structural balance of the tulip basket
The elevation of the diamond by means of 6 claws redefined jewellery standards in the late 19th century, freeing the stone's feuilletis to maximise light refraction. This second-hand solitaire ring perpetuates this engineering with subtlety. It features a 0.20-carat brilliant-cut diamond, whose colourless brilliance interacts with the warm hue of its 18-carat yellow gold setting. A silhouette of great distinction.
Architecture and jewellery expertise
The setting features a tapered construction. The ring body adopts a half-rod profile that pinches delicately as it approaches the central stone. This narrowing naturally directs the eye towards the tulip-shaped bezel. This openwork basket supports the diamond with 6 fine, perfectly equidistant claws, providing excellent security while allowing the light to penetrate the gem's breech. The metal benefits from a full polish that emphasises the precision of the curved lines.
Why this second-hand solitaire ring
Opting for this classic on the second-hand market is a relevant analytical approach. This solitaire offers a very balanced proportion between the finesse of the yellow gold and the presence of a 0.20 carat diamond with certified characteristics. In the face of the margins applied by contemporary jewellery to this type of essential basic, acquiring it second hand makes it possible to obtain an essential piece, perfectly executed, at a particularly competitive price.
