Why we love it
There's something so wonderfully easy about an old cut diamond set low into warm gold.
This ring has that beautiful antique feeling we always love - simple at first glance, but full of character once you look closer. Set into the smooth gold band is a bright and lively 0.16ct old cut diamond, full of sparkle and displaying the charming kozibe effect that collectors of old cut stones adore.
The ring bears the Austrian horse's head hallmark facing left with a 'W', indicating Vienna as the assay office. This mark was used between 1938 and 2001, adding an interesting layer of history to an already characterful piece.
We especially love this style as a low profile diamond ring for someone who wants antique sparkle without anything too fussy or delicate-feeling. It's solid, classic and special - the kind of ring that can become part of your everyday uniform.
Before you buy
How do you authenticate your pieces?
We carefully assess every piece using our gemmological training, specialist tools, and industry experience. We are both GIA Graduate Gemmologists and have also completed the Applied Jewelry Professional (AJP) qualification.
We work closely with our jeweller, who has almost 50 years of experience and is also a qualified gemmologist.
Carat weights are estimates based on measurements taken in the setting unless otherwise stated. Precise weights can only be obtained from loose stones. Many of our diamonds are old cuts, which are often asymmetrical and not calibrated due to traditional hand-cutting techniques.
We aim to provide clear photos and videos from multiple angles to help you purchase with confidence.
Do US customers have to pay tariffs or duties?
No - for United States customers, the price shown includes insured DHL Express or Australia Post shipping and import duties/tariffs.
This means there should be no separate bill for these charges on delivery. We always ship at full declared value so your parcel stays compliant, secure, and fully insured.

Layaway may be available by approval on selected pieces, we’re always happy to discuss. Please get in touch to enquire via our Contact Us form or via Instagram.
