Finding the perfect bust down may mean sifting through those created during different time periods — you can find an early version that dates to the 18th Century and a newer variation that were made as recently as the 21st Century. There have been many well-made iterations of the classic bust down over the years, but those made by Birks and Cartier are often thought to be among the most beautiful. A bust down can make for a versatile accessory, but a selection from our variety of 3 diamond versions can add an especially stylish touch. See these pages for an oval cut iteration of this accessory, while there are also round cut cut and mixed cut cut versions available here, too.
