Marquise Engagement Ring With Baguettes
The Helena ring is a vintage marquise engagement ring with baguettes from the Art Deco era, circa 1920! This incredible piece centers a 1.53 carat Marquise cut diamond of H color, VS2 clarity. The diamond is perfectly set in a platinum setting with a baguette diamond to each side, each about 0.07 carats. The ring is size 7.75 and can be resized!
Why We Love It
A gorgeous old cut Marquise is on full display with this ring! The center stone has a nice spread, giving it a larger face-up appearance! The side baguettes add a crisp touch to this super low-profile ring! If you look closely enough, you’ll see the Helena ring is all about accents! Check out how the pointed tips of the marquise diamond are accented by the triangular setting—or how the clarity of the baguettes is punctuated by the delicate millegrain detail! This vintage marquise engagement ring with baguettes is just so stylish!
Vintage Art Deco Fashion
Art Deco fashion was inspired by architecture, pairing sleek design with bold geometric designs. Think of Art Deco, and you’re thinking of the Roaring ‘20s, speakeasies, and gorgeous cocktail rings. All of these classic elements are present in the Helena ring. As modern as New York’s Chrysler building, this vintage ring is cool, symmetrical and impressive. There’s lovely contrast between the shapes: the curves and points of the center stone, the solid lines of the side stones. Yet these contrasting elements also create a sense of unity and balance. You don’t often see a marquise engagement ring with baguettes. And the Helena ring shows how they can work so well together!
Benefits Of A Marquise Diamond
Aside from their unique shape, marquise diamonds are a great choice for a number of other reasons! Here are just a few:
- Their long shape makes them look larger than other diamonds
- Their shape will make your finger look thinner and even longer
- Many marquise diamonds are brilliant cut for incredible brilliance and shine
When it comes to the many other benefits of marquise diamonds, the Helena ring speaks for itself. While some rings are hard to pull off, Helena fits effortlessly with various styles!
