1930s Art Deco ~0.20ct Transitional Cut Diamond Ring
~0.16ctw Single and Marquise Cut Diamond Sides, Platinum (sold)
What might not be apparent here is how perfectly delicate this ring is. It’s detailing is incredibly fine, and the scale is much smaller than rings of this style typically are. It doesn’t have any huge diamonds, but it’s an exceptional little ring.

Mid 19th Century Victorian Intaglio Wax Seal Fob, $265
Probably the most confusing Victorian intaglio I’ve ever seen. It took me a minute, but I got it. See if you can figure it out. The bottom image is mirrored to show how it would be seen when impressed in wax.
I’m still not sure why the word “return” has a line through it. Bonus points if you can make sense of that.
