Antique French double Toi et Moi diamond ring, 18K white
This is the most beautiful French double Toi et Moi ring! Regular Toi et Moi—or You and I—rings have two stones representing the you and the I. This beauty has four larger stones, two slightly larger than the other two, and two small "babies" at the sides.
The diamonds are all antique old cuts with charming big facets that just reflect the light so magically different than modern diamonds. One of the medium-sized diamonds has a slightly yellowish tint, estimated L - with the others facing more white and very alike in color, estimated to J-K. The two largest are apx 0.50 ct each and the two medium-sized are apx 0.25 ct each. The estimated clarity is: Si1, Si2, Si2, I1 in a 10x loupe - but all seems eye-clean to me. Oh, and the babies are apx .10ct on the sides. So a total of apx 1.70 ct of old-cut diamonds in total.
The stones are in great condition (one has a chip under a prong), and so is the setting, but the yellow gold shows slightly to the back of the shank. If this bothers you, you could consider getting it a new rhodium layer. The shank is 3 mm wide and features two French hallmarks.
