Damiani

Belle Époque

Round diamonds alternating with rubies, sapphires or emeralds round a band, like frames on a reel of film running past.

Abbraccio

Vhernier

Abbraccio

A ring named for an embrace, one of the first shapes Vhernier made, offered in plain gold or entirely paved with diamonds held by two prongs each.

Plain gold or full pavé is the choice Abbraccio offers: one of Vhernier's first rings, it comes in rose or white gold or entirely covered in 572 diamonds set on two prongs each. Colour in Belle Époque moves in sequence instead, a diamond, then a ruby, sapphire or emerald, then a diamond again, like frames passing on a strip of film, an idea Damiani took from Enrico Grassi Damiani's sketches, a tribute to 1920s Paris.
