Description
This fabulous antique ring from the Victorian period is a striking example of timeless elegance and craftsmanship. Featuring three lustrous, perfectly round pearls, the ring exudes a refined beauty that is characteristic of Victorian jewellery.
The pearls are delicately interspaced by six rose-cut diamonds, adding a touch of sparkle and sophistication to the design.
Rose-cut diamonds were one of the earliest diamond cuts, and were hand-cut by skilled artisans to maximize their sparkle in candlelight. The cut features small triangular facets across the top of the stone, creating a soft, radiant glow that is meant to resemble the swirling petals of a rose. The warm, antique allure of these diamonds complements the natural lustre of the pearls, enhancing their beauty and giving the ring an exquisite vintage charm.
The ring is set in a half-hoop mount, meticulously crafted in 18ct yellow gold, which provides a rich and warm backdrop for the pearls and diamonds. The intricately designed shoulders of the ring add a touch of artistry and refinement, showcasing the Victorian era’s love for detail and ornate craftsmanship.
During the Victorian period, pearls were highly sought after as a symbol of wealth, status, and femininity. Their pure, opalescent sheen made them a favorite among the aristocracy, and this piece is no exception. The combination of pearls and diamonds in a design that was both sophisticated and wearable made this ring an ideal representation of Victorian elegance.
This delightful piece of Victorian jewellery is not only a beautiful representation of the era’s craftsmanship, but also a rare and timeless treasure. Perfect for those who appreciate antique jewellery with historical significance.
