Marquise-cut Emerald And Diamond Ring, 18k Two-tone Gold

Secondhand French jewelry

This marquise ring elegantly combines yellow gold and 18K white gold. Its elongated design flatters the hand, while the scroll-patterned shank reveals the full refinement of this authenticated pre-owned piece.

The marquise cut owes its name to a court legend: Louis XV is said to have asked his jeweler to create a gemstone resembling the smile of the Marquise de Pompadour. Its elongated silhouette, tapered at both ends, has since been associated with elegance and sophistication—a subtle nod to the history of French jewelry that is reflected here in the design of the setting.

• For everyday wear or a night out: its elongated, refined design suits any occasion.

Remove your ring before doing housework or applying cosmetics, then simply clean it with a soft, slightly damp cloth. It’ll shine just as brightly as ever.
