Art Deco 'Toi et Moi' Ring
Futuristic-looking antique two-stone ring dating from the Art Deco period, circa 1920. The stones, a pair of bright old European cut diamonds, 30pts each, are set to either side of the band and slightly offset from one another - resting in simple bezel mounts with a hint of millegrain. Built in 18 carat white gold with platinum settings securing the stones. These rings, known as 'toi et moi' or 'me and thee' rings, were popular during the early years of the 20th century on account of the obvious romantic connotations... but perhaps the best known example was the exceptional sapphire and diamond example gifted by Napoleon to his beloved Josephine.

Condition
We offer detailed and accurate condition reports on each listing. These pieces are antique, vintage, or pre-loved, often over 100 years old so they're going to have lived a life. A healthy patina and the odd scuff/scrape are quite normal... it's part of their charm! Everything we present has been checked over by our jeweller and should be good for wear for many years to come (unless otherwise stated) but please remember to treat them with appropriate care and consideration for their age.
