1920-30s Art Deco Diamond Cocktail Ring, Platinum~1.35ctw European & Single Cut Diamonds (sold)
I’ve been really drawn to larger scale Deco rings lately— especially ones that are very geometric like this. But it’s a tricky design to pull off.  I always think the best Art Deco design balances rigid forms with fluidity.  Here the large rectangular expanse of diamonds is balanced with more organic shapes within, and a subtle wave form that gives the top a feeling of movement.
