A little history

Deep within the Earth, ruby is slowly born, shaped by heat and time like an ember trapped in stone. According to ancient legends, it is a spark of eternal fire, fallen from the sky and crystallised within the rock. Ancient civilisations attributed protective and courageous powers to it, believing it held a living force. Worn on the crowns of kings or close to the hearts of lovers, it has endured through the ages as the incandescent symbol of passion and unbreakable love.

The jeweller’s perspective

As with all creations in the Les Coquettes collection, the Première Dame solitaire is crafted using grain setting, a technique that securely holds the diamonds in its yellow gold mount with refined precision. This craftsmanship enhances the distinctive elegance of its split band, a signature feature of the design. As the two lines of the ring subtly part and come together again, they appear to form a single flowing movement, enhancing the brilliance of the central ruby. Illuminated in this way, the stone reveals its full depth and intensity.
