Marquise rings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries are characterized by their elongated shape and meticulous setting of old-cut diamonds. This type of cut, with its wide, deep facets, reflects the light more gently than modern cuts, offering a special sparkle.
These rings are usually set in yellow or rose gold, often combined with silver or platinum, a technique used at the time to bring out the brilliance of the diamonds. The pavé or claw setting maximizes the surface area covered by the stones, creating a luminous, airy effect.
Appreciated for their elegance and refined craftsmanship, these rings remain emblematic pieces of antique jewelry from Napoleon III to the Belle Époque, and still appeal to antique jewelry enthusiasts today.
