French Cut Diamond & Ruby Ring.

 

Good Day !

I attached the images of the French Cut Diamond & Ruby ring I was speaking of earlier! This job was a headache! But looking at the results, it was ultimately worth it because the ring is very pleasing to the eye!

What do you think?

There are 4 carats of French cut diamonds in total. A little secret… by cutting French Cut Diamonds in the right way you can increase the end color results in the diamonds, meaning, they don’t all have to be perfect to look really good. The Ruby itself is not so big — 1.50 carats — but the color is amazing. It is something to see, surrounded by so many diamonds, set in this metal.

Because of this ring,  I received an order for a man’s wedding ring with French cut diamonds going across the top of the ring. This Ring should be a stunner as well!!

Wanted to share this ring with you since my last blog was about French cut diamonds, my favorite !!

What do you think?

French Cut Diamonds

French cut Diamonds are among the most beautiful diamond cuts!!

The French Cut Diamond was created in the 1400s but really gained in favor in the 17th century. The French Cut Diamonds were loved and worn by royalty and nobility. The name French Cut, oddly enough, came from being not being cut in France but because at one time the French cut diamond was the most desired cut in France.

This cut is extremely rare today. Most people or jewelers don’t even know what a French Cut is or looks like.

The images don’t do the cut justice. When you see them in the light, OMG!  Have your sun glasses ready!!

The brilliance in a French Cut is like no other cut in a diamond. The sparkle is like a rainbow of colors because of the way in which the cuts angle in the light. You can see by the above images the small table and the large side crown angles. This is the main reason for the cut’s brilliance. It is hard to find today a diamond cutter who can cut this beautiful stone!!

As I blog this to you, I am waiting to get a new ring with French Cut Diamonds tapering down the sides of a ring.  At the ring’s center is an extremely rare Ruby center.  The entire ring is set in Platinum. I will show an image when I pick up the ring later in the day. This ring has taken 6 months to create.

You will tell me if it was worth the wait?

Have fun today!
