Vintage half-band centering a row of 7 old French-cut diamonds of approximately 2.10 carats, mounted in millegrain-set platinum. Center: 3.7x20mm, shank: 1.7-3mm. Circa 1930.

These chunky, old, French-cuts are fairly large for a band, so it's wonderful that it's in a half-band for comfort.

Diamond and gold mining has caused devastation in areas such as Africa, wreaking havoc on delicate ecosystems and communities. Choosing to go vintage, you are eliminating the need for more mining and lessening the demand for new diamonds.
