About the Item

Yard Inc. diamond and ruby cocktail ring. Set centrally with one octagonal Asscher cut diamond, F colour, SI1 clarity, with a weight of 1.87 carats in an open back claw setting, flanked with a recessed vertical row of three tapered baguette cut natural unenhanced Burmese rubies in open back channel settings with an approximate combined weight of 0.50 carats, further enhanced with six round old cut diamonds in open back grain settings with a combined weight of 0.30 carats. The total approximate diamond weight is 2.17 carats, to a asymmetrical geometric cluster design, featuring an angled gallery, polished borders and intricately pierced open backholing, the broad trumpeting shoulders tapering down to a solid flat shank. Tested platinum, signed 'YARD', American, circa 1935, accompanied by Gemological Institute of America (GIA) report #1236333861. Yard first introduced asymmetrical cocktail rings, also known as ‘sport’ rings, in the 1930’s. They became increasingly substantial pieces of jewellery in the following decade, often set with sizable centre stones. A similar ring, differing only in the shape of the central diamond, appears in 'Yard:The Life and Magnificent Jewelry of Raymond C. Yard', by Natasha Kuzmanovic, fig. 313. Please note shipping to the United States of America requires the purchaser to fill out a CBP 5106 customs form before the item is shipped. This form is a legal requirement for any item over $2,000 which is being imported into the United States. One of the details the form requests is the purchaser’s social security number or importer’s number.
