This brilliant 1.13 carat pear shaped diamond is set in platinum. The intricately faceted stone is EGL certified as having G color and VS1 clarity. Two subtle tapered baguettes, one on each side of the rock, tip the carat weight to 1.40 total. This vintage stunner dates from the 1950's or 60’s. The ring is a size 5 and it can easily be sized.
This silver bracelet is composed of a complex series of interwoven links, some cast to appear as wound with wires. The tongue-and-groove clasp is quite secure, and there are jump rings for connecting a safety chain if needed. The back of the clasp is marked Argentina with an obscured lozenge mark that most likely indicates silver content, likely .900. The bracelet shows a strong test for silver. It measures 7 ½ inches long by about ½ inch wide. Weight: 26.4 grams
