A rare survivor from around 1600, this transitional Renaissance to Baroque cluster ring embodies the discerning taste of early European connoisseurs. Crafted in yellow gold and silver, it holds nine table cut diamonds of exceptional calibre, their harmonious brilliance a testament to refined selection and mastery. Such uniform quality in stones of this period is extraordinarily rare, marking this jewel as one likely commissioned by a family of distinction. If only jewels could speak, this ring would recount stories of lineage, prestige, and the dawn of diamond connoisseurship.
This jewel is part of Adin's curated collection of early European masterpieces, representing over four centuries of jewellery history.

Condition
Very good condition. The ring has been preserved with remarkable care, retaining its structural integrity and original character. The central diamond is secured by a pin running through its centre from the top and fixed with tin along the inner side, a technique entirely typical for this period. As a result, the stone can turn slightly, which is consistent with its age and method of setting. Minor traces of wear add to its authenticity and charm.

Country of origin
Unknown. While no conclusive documentation exists, the refined craftsmanship and stylistic characteristics suggest that this jewel could have originated in one of the major European centres of the late Renaissance, such as Italy, the Southern Netherlands, or possibly Germany. Each of these regions was known for its mastery in early diamond setting and the subtle harmony of gold and silver work.
Style
It is uncertain whether this jewel should be classified as Renaissance or Baroque. What is relatively certain, however, is that it was created at the very moment when these two great styles met, a period of artistic transformation when classical restraint began to yield to movement and exuberance.

Style specifics
Baroque, which emerged shortly before 1600, evolved from the Renaissance tradition and flourished across Europe until the Rococo era around 1730. Originating in Italy and spreading through Germany, Austria, the Low Countries, Spain, and Portugal, it combined grandeur with vitality. Its sculptural lines, flowing ornament and sense of movement reflect the era's fascination with light and emotion, in contrast to the balanced symmetry of Renaissance design and the later asymmetry of Rococo.
Period
Around 1600 marks the transition from the measured harmony of the Renaissance to the more expressive energy of early Baroque design. This was a time when craftsmanship flourished under the influence of both classical ideals and the emerging taste for opulence that would soon define the seventeenth century.

Technique
The table cut diamonds are set on foil, a refined technique used to heighten their brilliance and depth. By reflecting light through the carefully faceted stones, this method enhanced their luminosity even in candlelight, revealing the skill of the early diamond cutters and the jewellers who mastered this delicate art.
Extra information
The diamonds in this ring display an exceptionally high quality. In all our years in the trade, we have never encountered a jewel of this age set entirely with stones of such uniform and outstanding calibre.
Diamonds
Nine table cut diamonds.The exact weight of the stones is unknown, which is customary in our trade for early cuts. Each diamond was carefully selected for its clarity and proportion, and together they create a rare harmony of light. Such uniform quality in stones of this period is seldom encountered and reflects the exceptional taste and means of the original patron.
- All diamonds, regardless of their size or shape, in our vintage and antique jewellery are verified as 100% natural by the IJGC laboratory.
Birthstones
Diamond is the birthstone for April and has long been associated with strength, purity, and everlasting love. Its symbolism of constancy made it a cherished choice for jewels of sentiment throughout history, a meaning that still endures today.

Hallmarks
No hallmarks are present, which is not unusual for jewellery of this early period. Hallmarking systems were still developing around 1600 and often applied inconsistently across regions. The absence of marks therefore aligns with its age and craftsmanship rather than detracting from its authenticity.
