Sapphire & Diamond 18K White Gold Eternity Band, Circa 1970s

Ten round brilliant diamonds and ten round brilliant sapphires alternate around this 1970s eternity band, each stone individually claw-set so light reaches every facet from both the top and sides. The diamonds total 1.75 carats, the sapphires 2.25 carats; substantial sizes for this style of band, giving each stone real visual weight rather than the fine, closely-set sparkle of a melee eternity ring. The alternating rhythm of white brilliance and saturated blue creates continuous contrast the full way around the finger, a design that reads equally well stacked with other bands or worn alone. Set in 18K white gold, the cool metal tone lets both stone colors read at full strength without warm undertones competing for attention. Condition is excellent: the gold retains a bright, well-kept finish, and all twenty stones are secure with no visible chips or losses.
