The articulated construction creates subtle movement when worn, allowing the larger diamonds to catch the light with every turn. Unlike the precise uniformity of modern brilliant cuts, these early diamonds have individual proportions and a softer, broader flash part of the unmistakable character of antique hand-cut stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sculptural openwork galleries are particularly beautiful when viewed from the side and behind. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith approximately 0.90 carat of natural diamonds between the four stones, these have a striking presence without feeling overly formal.
