Ring "Toi & Moi" Art Nouveau, made around 1900 in 18-carat yellow gold and platinum. Its two terminal bands coil into a soft vegetal scroll, a signature of the Art Nouveau style. An old-cut diamond sits next to an oval ruby, each claw-set, while the crossed shoulders are accented with old-cut diamonds, creating a gentle sparkle. The French name "Toi & Moi" is explicit: Toi & Moi, united in a single ring, a little wish to wear, a story that has every chance of becoming a family heirloom.

Style
Art Nouveau is an international artistic movement that peaked between about 1890 and 1905. In jewelry, it is characterized by fluid lines and ornaments inspired by nature.
This style spread throughout Europe under different names, notably Jugendstil in German-speaking regions and Stile Liberty in Italy. In the Netherlands, it was sometimes called "Slaolie stijl," meaning "salad oil style."
Art Nouveau opposed the historicist style of the 19th century and favored organic motifs, especially flowers and leaves, drawn in stylized, flowing curves. In jewelry, it helped to change tastes, moving away from neoclassical styles to adopt a more modern visual language.

Eighteen small accent diamonds, including old-cut diamonds, rose-cut diamonds, and senaille-cut diamonds.
The senaille cut is a simplified rose cut used for very small accent stones, often with only a few polished facets. The individual weight of stones of this cut is not recorded, which is standard practice when they are mainly used for their sparkle and definition.
- When we indicate the weight, color, and clarity of the diamonds, these values are approximate unless otherwise stated, as we do not remove the diamonds from their settings to preserve the integrity of the jewelry.
- All diamonds, regardless of size or shape, present in our antique jewelry and vintage pieces are certified 100% natural by the IJGC laboratory.
