Edwardian bezel set rings often display delicacy and finesse unseen before or after the early 20th century.

Jewellers had discovered that platinum could hold diamonds securely, using less metal than either silver or gold.

Combined with improvements in diamond cutting and the growing use of electric lighting over gas, gemstones shone as never before.

So we start to see minimal settings, as here, making the gemstones the main interest.

Many hours of skilled work went into this seemingly simple setting, using just the right amount of metal to delicately encase the three diamonds yet still making it sturdy enough to withstand everyday wear.

Original millegraining around the stones adds another level of appeal, as does the fine triple-section band.

Last but not least, the diamonds are of lovely quality.
