Tony Cavelto18kt custom diamond ring 0.65ct. tw. VS-G, 12gr. sz. 5 1/2, $5,000.00 CAD. 131-00275
Born in Switzerland and established in Vancouver, more than 50 years ago, Toni Cavelti is internationally celebrated for his handcrafted modernist creations. Renowned for his bold geometric forms and refined textures, Cavelti’s work reflects the clean lines, sculptural references and rich textures that define the Modernist jewellery movement. Cavelti’s accolades include four Diamonds International Awards and a commissioned necklace for Queen Elizabeth.
As a signature designer for Birks, his work continues to be highly sought after by collectors worldwide. A spectacular example of vintage modernist design, this signed Toni Cavelti ring is masterfully handcrafted in solid 18 karat yellow gold. This striking designer estate piece features a prominent brilliant-cut, centre diamond weighing approximately 0.55 carats, graded VS1 clarity and G colour, bezel set in white gold atop a prominent rounded barrel design feature that sits high off the finger.
Measuring approximately 8.5 mm high with a diameter of 12.5 mm, the bold sculptural crown is further enhanced by an engraved “sunburst” effect radiating from the central diamond. The fluted texture of the engraved pattern contrasts against the substantial, smooth, flat, high-polished, wide (11.7mm) yellow gold band.
An additional “halo”, comprised of 18 round single cut diamonds of the same quality with an approximate total carat weight of 0.45 carats, accents all the way around the middle of the elevated crown. A collectible statement piece, at an impressive weight 12 grams in premium 18 karat gold. This vintage Cavelti diamond ring embodies timeless modernist elegance and exceptional craftsmanship. Currently measuring a size 5 1/2 with room be adjusted up or down in size, this vintage designer gem is in excellent condition. It comes with a 2007 certificate of appraisal from Birks suggesting a retail price of $10,500.00.
If you love the funky style of this Cavelti ring but it’s a little out of reach, we also have a similar looking ring in 14 karat gold from an unknown manufacturer featuring a 9.6mm Florentine finish ball on a flat shank.
The Cavelti(esque) design measures a finger size 5, weighs 2.6 grams, can be made larger or smaller, and is estate priced at $500.00 CAD (stock #401-00313).
The Cavelti original is estate priced at $5,000.00 CAD. Stock #131-00275.
