Belle Epoque Dragon Ring

I purchased this French ring from a co-worker. She was not fond of the piece , and was going to melt the ring and turn it into something else. I purchased it from her instead. Saving a great piece of art in the process. It is now my favorite. The ring is 18kt gold 22 old cut diamonds. Center stone is turquoise, held in place by the 6 talons of mirror image dragons. nothing else is supporting the stone. exquist! I believe the ring was made by GROSS ET LANGOULANT c. 1900

If anybody has any other information to provide to me , it would be greatly appreciated.
