Just listed it on DB:
http://diamondbistro.com/category/214/Eternity-Rings/listings/32821/Antique-Deco-platinum-diamond-eternity-band-sz-75.html

I just got this band and I absolutely love it but, sadly, it just doesn't fit on any of my fingers and does not appear to be resizable. This is an antique full eternity band from the early part of the 20th century. The total diamond weight is approximately 0.5 ct. The band is 2.5mm wide. The stones are full cut little OMCs/OECs, I can see open culets on many of them. The Ebay description states that the diamonds are H, SI1. They're eye-clean but I see small inclusions in a couple of the stones under magnification. There's no stamp but the Ebay seller states that it is platinum. The band has just been refinished and is in excellent condition. I'm asking $575 plus $10 towards ensured tracked shipping within the US. This is a final sale and I'm happy to answer any questions you may have. Thanks for looking!

Reduced the price to $525.
 
Lowered the price to $475. I'd like to sell it in the next couple of weeks so will consider reasonable offers. Thanks!
 
Oh I love this band :love: Too bad it is 1 size too big. However, I emailed a friend to see if she was interested. I know she has been looking for a 7.5 or 7.75 eternity band. I hope this sells fast for you!
 
Thanks Sarah! I hope it finds a good home. I've been looking for a band like this for some time too, just haven't found one in my size yet.
 
Do you think it's as old as the ebay seller suggested? I only ask because it doesn't look like the band has that much wear, but it is so hard to tell from photos. It is my size, which is in part, why I am so curious, but I really don't need a band, so probably won't be your buyer. But it is soooooooooooo pretty!!!

It's definitely old, how old exactly i couldn't tell you but my guess is 20s-30s? The seller just had it repolished, restored, so it looks great. The milgrain does show wear though.
 
Reduced the price further to $425. Thanks!
 
Doh- 1/2 size too small!!!! Good luck to new owner....
 
My DB listing will expire in less than a week so I made a final price reduction, to $375. Thanks!
 
Hi, what is the height (thickness) of this ring in mm, please? Thanks!
 
The link is not working.
 
I don't know what finger size you are but I have an antique platinum ring almost exactly like yours and both I and the previous owner had the ring sized. Our jeweler (we used the same one) inserted a thin strip of metal between the squares to enlarge it for the previous owner and removed the strip plus other metal for me. It went from a 7.5 to a 5.75. The jeweler recreated the engraving on the sides and no one could guess the ring has been worked on.

Just a thought for anyone who fears that these antique eternity bands cannot be sized.
 
Thanks Swingirl! That's really good to know! If it doesn't sell soon, I"m going to see if I can get it resized and keep it.
