TWO-TONE RUBY RING, 0.90 CT

The two-tone tradition and the brilliance of the ruby

The combination of white gold for the setting and yellow gold for the ring band is a time-honoured jewellery-making technique, designed to preserve the whiteness of the diamonds whilst retaining the warmth of a classic ring. This piece showcases a natural oval-cut ruby, with an estimated weight of 0.90 carats. The setting is crafted from 18K two-tone gold. This pre-owned piece is part of a timeless heritage featuring an asymmetrical design.

Architecture and jewellery craftsmanship

The yellow gold band flares out to form openwork shoulders featuring interlaced motifs. The central setting, crafted entirely from white gold, holds the red gemstone secured by a set of prongs. The surrounding setting comprises six brilliant-cut diamonds of approximately 0.10 carats each, totalling an estimated weight of 0.60 carats. The use of white gold for this upper section optimises the penetration and reflection of light through the gemstones.

Why choose this second-hand ring

This design combines a classic jewellery composition pairing ruby with diamond, supported by a two-tone structure that is challenging to produce. The density of the solid gold ensures excellent stability for the openwork shoulders. Purchasing this piece second-hand offers the opportunity to acquire a generous gemmological volume, with a price point optimised in relation to the costs of contemporary craftsmanship.
