July Jewel of the Month 2010Tiffany Diamond Engagement Ring
July Jewel of the Month 2010 is a beautiful Antique Tiffany & Co. Diamond Engagement Ring! This is the ring of LEGENDS! Dating back to the late 1800's and in excellent condition (Tiff & Co introduced the classic engagement ring in 1886). This ring JUST LOOKS FANTASTIC ON!!! Tiffany & Co. really were ahead of their time and this diamond still stands on its own even by today's GIA standards. The ring is fully stamped "Tiffany & Co." and it corresponds to other Tiffany items of this time and complies in every way - the Hallmark, the Craftsmanship, and of course, Tiffany's Quality! The diamond is of old European cut with a small open cutlet and is of "very good cut" by today's GIA standards (I've never seen a euro cut diamond this well cut and symmetrical); it sparkles like crazy, it's like a star! It is 0.57ct, VVS2 clarity and J-K color (it sparkles soooo much it looks pretty white to me even compared to my E-F colored diamonds). Incredible quality for it's time for sure!!! The diamond is set in platinum on a 19k yellow gold shank (acid tested) which is stamped "Tiffany & Co." The platinum prong setting is sure to stand the test of time even longer; the gold band is in no way worn down and is quite thick sideways although it is slim). Ring size approx 5.75 - 6. and best of all July Jewel of the Month 2010 has been appraised by Greg Taylor GIA (Est. 1975) and the 4c's of the Diamond are Guaranteed!
