Description from the seller
14 karat yellow gold tank ring set with 3 brilliant-cut diamonds totaling approximately 0.75 ct, which are set in platinum prong settings. The diamonds are surrounded by 16 single-cut diamonds totaling approximately 0.32 ct, set in pavé settings.
Tank jewelry originated during World War II. In these uncertain times, families chose to melt their gold into large, solid pieces of jewelry—a portable security. Thus the tank ring emerged, deriving its name and design from war tanks: a solid form, clear geometric lines and large, curling decorative elements. Gradually, tank jewelry evolved into the distinctive style we know, made of yellow or rose gold and studded with diamonds in platinum settings.
Ring size: 17.25 mm / 54 EU / 14 IT / 6 ¾ US
Width of the centerpiece: approx. 13 mm
Diamond specification:
Cut: Brilliant and single cut
Size: 3x approx. 0.25 ct and 16x approx. 0.02 ct (total approx. 1.07 ct)
Clarity: VS/SI
Color: H/I
Assay marks: 585 Dutch Hallmark, 950 Dutch Platinum Hallmark
Quality: Wear and usage marks consistent with age and use, including scratches in the gold. The two sides of the ring show signs of platinum or solder residues. A few diamonds have looseness in the setting. For your own impression, see the photos.
