Description

Romantic Victorian Heart Shaped Cluster Ring set with Diamonds and Rubies.

Dating from around the 1860's, pieces such as this epitomise the "Romantic Period" during Queen Victoria's reign which focused on sentimentality, romance and symbolism. The meaning this piece wished to convey is very clear, not just in the Heart Shaped setting but also in the symbolic meanings the gems possess; Rubies for "Love" or passion and Diamonds for "Forever".

The setting is Silver and closed back in Gold, a traditional technique during the 19th Century. The shank is also Gold, probably 18 Carat, and although the extensive engraving to the outside remains in excellent condition the piece does lack it's hallmark.

The Pear Cut Ruby is a fabulous Pinky-Red, the most sought after hue whilst the Diamonds are Old Cut, with an approximate clarity of VS-SI and colour J. They have a total Diamond weight of approximately .46 Carats (almost 1/2 Carat.)

Excellent Condition.

It is a UK size O, US approx 7.5

Price: £895.00 (approx $1,540.00 USD)
