Antique double row diamond ring made in the Victorian era
Here is a very beautiful ring that will so easily suit any finger including making a very unique and special engagement ring.
Made in the late Victorian era of the 1890’s in 18 carat yellow gold, the ring is set with not one but two rows of diamonds, and then adding to the character of the ring, the diamonds are the lovely European cut diamonds. These diamonds total 0.72 carats and being cut by hand over a century ago and conflict-free, there is nothing quite like the charm of these earlier diamonds.
Measuring 6.4mm wide at the centre, by 17.3mm across, the top of the ring leads down to a newer 18 carat yellow gold band that feels so lovely and smooth on the finger.
This really is such a wonderful ring that will look perfect on any finger that it is worn on.
