A captivating 18ct yellow gold Soviet Russian ring, reminiscent of the Art Nouveau style, with hallmarks indicating manufacture after 1958, set with an array of diamonds totalling an estimated 1.04ct.

The principal round brilliant cut diamond is set in a buttercup claw setting and weighs approximately 0.50ct, to a ‘spray’ of diamonds with four claw set round brilliant cuts and a tendril set with eight round single cuts in four bead claw settings. Millegraine detailing throughout adds a further touch of old world charm and attention to detail.

To one shoulder shank are a further seven round single cuts, and the opposing shoulder shank is plain and half round flowing to the remaining shank.

Crafted with utmost care and attention to detail, this ring is a testament to the rich heritage of Russian goldsmithing. The 18ct Russian yellow gold, with its warm, rich and lustrous hue, adds a touch of opulence and timelessness to the design.

Stunning on the finger with a spread of 2.4cm north to south, this statement ring can be worn with the spray facing in either direction, what ever takes your fancy!

With its unique combination of Russian artistry, exquisite diamonds, and radiant gold, this piece is a true treasure to be cherished for a lifetime.
