Mid Century Modernist Flared Band with Diamonds

A striking mid 20th century band, modeled in 18k yellow gold and platinum, whose unique form wraps the finger, overlapping itself to finish with a blunt, flared end. The vibrant, yellow gold body of this ring features a deeply-carved, openwork, organic texture that recalls craggy natural surfaces made of rock, or ice. Atop this rich, textural swath, a flared, tapering, l-shaped platinum edging rests, set with sparkling, white, round brilliant cut diamonds. We love the many contrasts at play, here, and the ring's incredible texture! This is weighty, and beautifully made. It would make a wonderful, unusual wedding band.
