Description

Discover the allure of these extraordinary 1950s French diamond clips—masterpieces of mid-century Parisian haute joaillerie. Crafted in luxurious platinum and 18K white gold, these versatile treasures feature two magnificent center diamonds (~1.50ct each) of exceptional G/H color and SI2/VS2/SI1 clarity, surrounded by a dazzling array of brilliant-cut, 8/8-cut, and baguette diamonds that capture and reflect light with mesmerizing brilliance.

The sophisticated double volute (scroll) pattern exemplifies the refined aesthetic that made French jewelry design legendary during this golden era. With impressive 5 x 3 cm dimensions, these substantial yet elegantly proportioned clips make a statement without overwhelming.
