18ct White Gold Art Deco Sapphire and Diamond Target Ring

A French Art Deco sapphire and diamond target ring set in 18ct white gold. The oval plateau is set with calibré-cut sapphires arranged in a sunburst pattern radiating outward from a central old cut diamond of approximately 0.2ct. The sapphires are custom-cut tapered baguettes, precisely fitted together to create a seamless field of deep blue that fills the entire face of the ring. This calibré cutting is a hallmark of the finest Art Deco jewellery, requiring each stone to be individually cut and fitted like tiles in a mosaic.
The centre diamond is claw set in white gold, its bright fire creating a striking contrast against the dark blue surround. The overall effect is bold and graphic, exactly the kind of confident, geometric design that defines the Art Deco period.
