2.5 Carat Diamond Ballerina Ring with 1.78 Carat Ruby in 18 Karat White Gold
About the Item
This classic ballerina ring -- with baguettes of various sizes forming a "skirt" at different elevations -- was originally set with a diamond, but we decided to set it with something more wearable and contemporary -- a maroon ruby -- nearly opaque and completely saturated with rich color.
The 1.78 carat mixed cut ruby, from Mozambique (heat-treated but not filled) has a shallow crown, so that it appears almost flat.
The ruby is surrounded by a 1/2 carat of round stones - a diamond halo of 14 round, full-cut stones that we rate at G-H color and VS2-SI1 clarity.
The 32 baguettes - we estimate 2 carats worth - are all tapered, ranging from 3mm and 4mm in length. We rate the baguettes at H color and VS1-2 clarity.
All stones are securely prong-set. At least two of the baguettes appear to be replacements.
The ring, probably made in the 1960s or early 1970s (there are no maker's marks to offer clues) is of sturdy construction in 18 karat white gold with split shoulders and a carinated shank.
According to the mandrel, this ring is a size 6.5, but it fits a bit bigger (almost a 7) because there is some wiggle room behind the ring's face. Resizing is complimentary for full-price buyers and negotiable otherwise.

"Shield" Modern Power Ring in White Gold with Ruby & Diamonds
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
The face of this bold, modern ring started off in life as a cufflink,* probably made in the early 1970s.
Originally set with a not-aging-very-well black star sapphire, Eytan replaced it with a nice 1.02 carat natural ruby cabochon. The diamonds are original -- clean little full cut brilliants, earth-mined and untreated, weighing approximately 0.03 carats each.
The wide split shoulders flare out a bit at the sides to form a carinated single shank that tapers to a width of 4mm at the back.
Currently a size 7, Eytan will resize at no additional charge for full-price buyers.
All metal is 14 karat white gold.
This ring weighs 12.4 grams.
* We made this cuff link's mate into a slider pendant -- reset with a nice sapphire -- which is also listed on Dibs. Copy and paste...
