A classic French belle époque diamond and pearl ‘toi et moi’ antique engagement ring circa 1910. The band is crafted in 18K gold and overlaps itself at the front in typical ‘toi et moi’ design. The 0.2ct cushion cut bright diamond is mounted in a clawed platinum setting whilst the natural pearl sits gracefully on the opposing side with a floral motif to the back of the setting. The ‘toi et moi’ (translating to you and me) design is one of the most historic ring setting styles symbolising love.

2.79g 18K gold

Diamond measures 3.2mm x 3.2mm x 2.5mm

The ring is in excellent condition for its age, upon magnification there is a tiny chip to a corner of the diamond but barely noticeable to the naked eye and the stone remains very secure in its setting.

The ring is stamped with a French ’tête d’aigle’ (eagle head) control mark to indicate 18K gold made in Paris.
