We must admit, we got a little emotional when we saw this stunning emerald collection that is over 70 years old! This antique emerald and diamond ring was given to a very special lady in the 1930's in Paris - her husband was clearly well ahead of his time in taste. The Art Deco Movement of the 20's and 30's introduced new styles in jewelry that featured bold colors and geometric shapes such as these. This was the new "modern" look. Collections like these bring a whole new meaning and appreciation to heirloom jewelry.
Cut: Emerald Center stone with round brilliant hexagonal halo setting
Jeweler: Renee Puisant of Van Cleef & Arpels
About this ring: This ring comes as part of a complete, and just as gorgeous set. Below are the bracelet, necklace, and earrings.
