Diamond and Emerald Cocktail Ring by Van Cleef & Arpels, France (1960s)

Crafted by Van Cleef & Arpels in the 1960s, this voluptuous cocktail ring is a study in abundance. Set in rich 18k yellow gold, round-cut emeralds and diamonds bloom in a tapestry of vivid green and glacial fire. The bombe form rises with regal presence, its pavé setting a masterclass in French haute joaillerie. At once lush and architectural, it conjures the glamour of mid-century soirées—where every glance was a promise.
