c. Early-Mid 1900s Engagement Ring with Art Nouveau / Vienna Succession Shoulders and an Oval Rose Cut Diamond Center

Period: c. early to mid 1900s with a marked Art Nouveau / Vienna Succession aesthetic influence; hand-carved design

Mark: the ring is stamped “10K”, possibly for Kroll & Co., which was an active jewelry house in 1920s NYC; the piece is also very faintly hand inscribed “MLE” (so faint, in fact, that is is nearly impossible to see without decent optics)—this may have been part of an early identification number

Materials: 10K rose gold; diamond

Dimensions: the top measures 11.10 mm wide north to south; the ring stands 2.75 mm tall above the finger—this is a very low-profile piece and is particularly appropriate for those with snag concerns 

Size: 4 1/2 (free sizing—contact us for more info)

Diamond: 1.11 carat Oval Rose Cut diamond (GIA assessed as Oval Modified Brilliant; K faint brown color; VVS1 clarity)— this is a very (indeed, "very very") clean stone
