.25 Vintage Old European Diamond Cocktail Ring Palladium

This 1950's Mid-Century cocktail ring is set with a .25 carat Old European cut diamond in J color and I1 clarity, mounted in palladium. The cut gives the stone a warm, candlelit glow rather than sharp, modern brilliance, and the J color adds a faint golden cast you'll notice under direct light. I1 clarity means a few natural inclusions sit visible without magnification, giving the stone a bit of character rather than a flawless look. Four marquise-shaped diamond accents, each about 2.75mm and totaling .32 carats, surround the center stone in a geometric arrangement. Milgrain beading traces the edges of the setting, adding fine texture along the border. The ring sits low against the finger, so it wears comfortably despite its strong, graphic shape.
