Vintage Engagement Ring with Ruby & Diamonds, c. 1970

What is the classic engagement ring? Two options come to mind: one is the diamond solitaire, set in white gold. It focuses entirely on the brilliance of a diamond, white and bright, and has come back into fashion, especially in recent years. In the decades before, it was rather the so-called entourage ring that defined the idea of the perfect engagement ring. It was virtually the classic engagement ring of the 70s and 80s. Entourage rings, usually made of white gold, surround a precious coloured stone with a wreath of sparkling diamonds. Here too, diamonds are part of the ring's message: due to their great hardness, they are symbols of eternity and the everlasting promise made with the ring. However, they do not stand alone here, but serve primarily to present the central coloured stone in the best possible way, to give its colour and beauty the right setting. An entourage ring therefore not only tells of the duration of the bond, it also has a personal touch: rubies, for example, speak of passion that is meant to burn forever, while sapphires speak of fidelity. It goes without saying that an entourage ring can be just as precious a gift as a solitaire. The ring here presents a wonderful, deep red, natural ruby in a double frame of sparkling diamonds. The gemstones are set in brightly shining white gold and are of the finest quality. The pictured independent appraisal from the German Association for Gemstone Evaluation has confirmed their value. It comes with the ring we discovered here in Berlin.
