Hey guys:
I have this cheap engagement ring set, and I know the setting is very cheap, but I am interested in finding out when this kind of setting was used, and insight on how it was made. Is it a handmade setting? The pierced work is very uneven -- so bad, that I can't believe it was die-cut! Anyway, here is the image. The interesting thing is that the stone is reasonably well-cut, and quite clean and bright. Thanks, Neil

Quite right Leslie. Cast and assembled and worn. An example of some of the first diamond wedding and engagement sets were made at this time. 14k white and yellow gold, I suspect
