.42 Antique Deco Navette Cocktail Ring in 18k

This Art Deco navette cocktail ring is made in 18 karat white gold with a distinctive elongated, boat-shaped design. The ring features three old European cut center diamonds totaling .42 carats with H color and SI1 clarity, plus ten accent diamonds at 1.75mm each adding another .20 carats for a total diamond weight of .62 carats. Old European cuts produce a broader, chunkier sparkle pattern compared to modern brilliants—they're cut for candlelight rather than electric light.

The shoulders have hand engraving and milgrain detailing that's typical of 1920s-1930s. The navette shape creates an elongating effect on the finger while the white gold keeps the overall look crisp and architectural.
