Cinnamon Zircon and Diamond Bangle Bracelet. The magical, 7.96 carat, gemstone takes the place of a fine, but unfortunately fractured, sapphire in the center of a beautiful bangle bracelet crafted in platinum and 14K yellow gold and sparkling with 2.50 carats of bright-white old-cut round diamonds. Apparently, the platinum wing-like sections were crafted during the 1920s Art Deco period and ingeniously repurposed in this bracelet during the middle of the last century.
