Mid-century vintage engagement ring by Cartier centered with a 1.08 carat round brilliant cut diamond, held in a four prong platinum setting with sculptural stepped shoulders in platinum and 18k yellow gold. This design is characteristic of Cartier’s work in the 1950s–1960s, a period when the house frequently paired platinum with yellow gold and favored soft, aerodynamic forms over the sharper geometry of earlier Art Deco pieces. The interior carries a hand engraved Cartier signature and six digit serial number 779953, a numbering range used by Cartier during the mid-20th century. The combination of two-tone construction, the style of the engraving, and the serial format all support a precise dating of circa 1955–1965.
A beautifully preserved example of Cartier’s mid-century craftsmanship—elegant, wearable, and unmistakably Parisian.
