This is a wonderful and exquisite diamond ring showcasing a bold design that embodies timeless sophistication.
The classic piece is masterfully crafted from 18 carat yellow gold, offering a rich hue that perfectly complements the substantial design of the band. At its heart lies a striking old mine cut diamond, weighing approximately 0.85ct, set within a raised scalloped claw setting that seamlessly transitions into the polished band of the ring, giving it a sleek look. We date this gorgeous piece to around the late Victorian era, and from assessing the ring we think it was likely made in Britain.
This piece is a true testament of tradition and timeless beauty. It weighs 5.0 grams and is currently sized to UK 'Q', US size 8.25, but could be altered by a couple of sizes. It tests as 18 carat gold.
