This unusual ruby and diamond ring has a clever hinged construction that allows the design to open at the centre, revealing a vivid row of rubies concealed between its two white gold bands.
Finely crafted in 18 carat white gold, this intricately designed ring features a rounded profile that tapers elegantly towards the hinged sides. Delicate round brilliant cut diamonds are scattered across the front of both bands, with a combined total weight of approximately 0.15ct, adding a subtle touch of sparkle to its sophisticated design.
Opening the two sections reveals a channel set row of baguette cut rubies running across the centre with a total approximate combined weight of 1.50ct. The hinged design means it can be worn with the bands sitting closely together for a simpler diamond set look, or opened to bring the rubies into view.
There is something so special about having two very different looks within the same piece: from the outside, the rubies are almost entirely hidden, making the rich flash of red at the centre an unexpected detail.
The ring weighs 11.24 grams and is a UK finger size 'O'. It is stamped 750 and also bears the mark SIFANT.
