The Geometric Brilliance of the Princess Solitaire
The princess cut emerged in the 1960s under the impetus of diamantaire Arpad Nagy. It quickly established itself as the angular alternative to the classic brilliant cut. This pre-owned jewel honours that cut with a natural 0.45-carat diamond. Certified H for its whiteness and VS for its clarity, the gem reveals crisp facets and a direct return of light. The 18-carat white gold setting accompanies the geometric rigour of the stone with a refined design.
Architecture and jewellery craftsmanship
The integrity of this ring rests on a considered construction. The raised head frees the pavilion of the diamond to optimise the passage of light. The stone is firmly secured by 4 V-shaped claws, an essential setting technique to protect the pointed corners of the princess cut. The ring shank adopts a crossover profile in which strands of white gold wrap around the central motif. This generous structure ensures a confident presence on the hand.
Why this pre-owned solitaire
Acquiring a pre-owned artisan creation reflects a discerning approach. The manufacturing costs of such a solitaire require a considerable investment in labour. By choosing this piece, the buyer benefits from a substantial setting and a certified 0.45-carat diamond at a fraction of the price of an original bespoke order from a workshop.
