Overview:
Stylish contemporary sapphire & diamond square cocktail ring crafted in 18 karat white gold.
The invisible setting is a complex technique of cutting gemstones to fit very close together. This allows the gem setter to cover the surface of the mount with a floating gemstone mosaic look, resulting in a dramatic and unique piece of jewelry. Patented by Van Cleef & Arpels in 1933 and known as the 'Mystery Setting', the resulting jewels from the famed French jewelry house are some of the most memorable jewels ever created.
The sapphires shimmer with a royal blue hue, framed with diamonds in a large square mount, slightly domed to highlight the gemstones with your every movement. The ring has a low dome profile and rises 6mm from the finger (0.23 inches).
The ring is in very good condition and was lightly cleaned and polished.
