This antique French bombe ring is crafted in solid 18ct yellow gold and set with three old cut diamonds—two old mine cuts and a central old European cut—each approximately 3.5mm in diameter. The total diamond weight is estimated at 0.60ct. The ring weighs 6.57g and features a bold domed profile, measuring 12.5mm at the front and tapering to 6.5mm at the back.
The diamonds are flush-set into the gold for a smooth, sculptural look. Stamped on the outside with the French eagle’s head hallmark for 18ct gold and a lozenge-shaped maker’s mark, illegible due to its age. The piece likely dates to the early 20th century.
