Consisting in a Very Large Round head made with a Central Star Motif Surrounded by Large Roughly Cut Rose Cut Diamonds framing a large Antique Natural Pearl of Baroque Shape Very Solidly Made and interesting Ring
This is Entirely Hand Done with some imperfection in Crafting
Not to be Compared with more recent pieces
Diamonds are irregular in cut and size
The gold housing for the Diamonds takes the shape of each single Diamond
This is why it Looks irregular - The maker followed a different Criteria looking more to house well the gems than respecting the Symmetry of the star
