Bell & Bird Cutaway Cushion Cut Diamond Ring
To special order, email info@bellandbird.com
One of our signature designs, in silver-topped 18k gold, cutaway setting. This design is inspired by a labor-intensive setting technique common in 18th and 19th century rings. The silver-on-gold technique is true to the rings that inspired this design and are rarely seen in modern jewelry. This ring features an approximate 8 carat antique GIA certified cushion cut diamond.
Hand fabricated in our Texas workshop, this ring is in our custom blend of 18K rose gold. A more subdued, darker tone than commercially available rose gold. We call this color "old gold" and created the alloy in the spirit of the many 19th century rings we have handled. The silver has been darkened with an oxidation technique.
This example is Sold, please reach out for special ordering a similar ring.
The diamond solitaire ring is inspired by the many Georgian and early Victorian cutaway rings we have handled over the years.
