Antique Edwardian Filigree Engagement Rings - 2013-11-10

A Cute Story About Antique Edwardian Filigree Engagement Rings

Most of us don’t associate antique Edwardian filigree engagement rings with a torch. And yet,no finer association has ever been made. When Edmond Fouche and Charles Picard invented the oxyacetylenetorch in 1903, they also unwittingly invented the platinum engagement ring. Theoxyacetylene torch was the first to use pure oxygen in it’s tank instead of regular air and wastherefore able to produce a much hotter flame. These hot flames allowed jewellers to melt metalwith precision and in a room environment.

Edwardian 1.22ct Diamond Platinum Engagement Ring

Platinum engagement rings exploded with popularity in the Edwardian era because of this new invention.Most antique Edwardian engagement rings feature a setting made of platinum that has been intricately styled into afiligree lace-likepattern. Inspite of the delicate nature of the design, platinumis a very hard and durable metal, whichhappily meansthat many have stood the test of time well. Click here to see some beautiful examples.
