The ring is centred on an oval sapphire of an estimated 1.93 carats, surrounded by baguette-cut diamonds arranged in a swirling, radiating pattern that gives the setting a dynamic, fluid quality very different from the geometric symmetry of an Art Deco surround. The movement of the baguettes — each stone following the curve of the design rather than sitting in a straight line — is a characteristic of the more sculptural, expressive jewellery design of the late 1960s and 1970s, when Italian makers in particular were pushing against the formal conventions of the previous generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estimated total diamond weight is 1.8 carats, with an estimated colour and clarity of G\/H and VS — stones of good quality whose whiteness and transparency allow the precision of the baguette cutting to be fully appreciated. Signed and hallmarked Chimento Italy, 18ct gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRing size N½ (UK).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCirca:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1970\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSapphire:\u003c\/strong\u003e Estimated 1.93 carats, oval cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiamonds:\u003c\/strong\u003e Estimated 1.8 carats, baguette-cut, G\/H VS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing size:\u003c\/strong\u003e N½ (UK)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHallmarks:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18ct gold; signed Chimento Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chimento, Vicenza, Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Wildsmith Jewellery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43320341823677,"sku":"","price":3350.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0273\/2127\/0385\/files\/85E071E1-1F11-4491-AB72-7FFE8DC45369.jpg?v=1709159558","url":"https:\/\/wildsmithjewellery.co.uk\/zh-hans\/products\/chimento-18ct-gold-sapphire-diamond-ring-italy-c-1970","provider":"Wildsmith Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
