1950s Chrysoberyl Catseye Diamond Platinum Engagement Ring

About the Item

1950s Chrysoberyl Catseye Diamond Platinum Engagement Ring. The 1950s Chrysoberyl Catseye Diamond Platinum Engagement Ring represents a significant intersection of gemstone allure and mid-20th-century aesthetics. Chrysoberyl, particularly in its Catseye form, gained popularity during the Victorian and Edwardian eras due to its unique optical phenomenon known as chatoyancy, which resembles a feline's eye. This captivating feature not only enhances the gem’s visual appeal but also imbues it with symbolic meaning, often associated with protection and good fortune. The choice of platinum as a setting material further elevates the ring's status. Platinum’s durability and rarity make it an ideal choice for engagement rings, particularly in the post-war era when there was a shift towards more modern designs. The combination of chrysoberyl cat's-eye with diamonds accentuates the ring’s elegance while reflecting societal trends favoring luxurious yet understated jewelry during this period. SPECIFICATIONS: CATSEYE: One greenish-yellow Chrysoberyl Catseye rounded cabachon stone weighs approximately 0.50 carat. DIAMONDS: 2 Round brilliant cut and 12 single cuts total approximately 0.85 carats, approximately VS clarity, H-I color. METAL: Platinum. WEIGHT: 4.1 grams. DIMENSIONS: 10mm long by 19mm wide. RING SIZE: Size 6.5. CONDITION: High magnification photographs show considerable design details, and this ring is in good condition, all consistent with age and wear. * QUESTIONS?
