Antique sapphire and diamond engagement ring made in the early 1900’s
This antique sapphire and diamond ring was hand made in the early 1900's and will so easily suit any finger, including making a wonderful engagement ring. Set with three magnificent sapphires that all display such a fine royal blue colour, the sapphires come together to total 0.45 carats. Highlighted with a European cut diamond on each side of the centre sapphire, the diamonds total 0.22 carats and are in perfect proportion to both the sapphires and the setting.

As beautiful and elegant today as when it was made over 110 years ago, regardless of what finger this ring is worn on, it will no doubt always be loved, cherished and admired.
