Antique diamond engagement ring

Here is a stunning Edwardian era antique diamond engagement ring made in 1902 that not only looks incredible from the top when you admire all the diamonds, but also the elegant and intricate scroll work on the side. Antique diamond engagement rings are always so unique and special as they were hand made and this engagement ring is certainly no exception. Set with five large antique European cut diamonds, set between each diamond are two smaller antique rose cut diamonds. The five main European cut diamonds graduate so elegantly in size to the largest one in the centre, and these diamonds total an impressive 1.34 carats. The sparkle from these diamonds is wonderful and with the addition of the smaller rose cut diamonds, this ring will have you admiring it every time that it is on your finger. The smaller rose cut diamonds add that extra sparkle and total 0.04 carats and show how much thought and time went into making this ring. Modern antique reproduction engagement rings simply don't have this extra level of character which is just one of the many reasons why there is nothing quite like a genuine antique diamond engagement ring. And then looking at the ring from the side, there is the most wonderful scroll work which is a testament to the level of quality and craftsmanship that went into hand making this ring well over 100 years ago, yet is still not only in superb condition but looks as beautiful today as it did all those years ago. Measuring 19.1mm across by 6.2mm wide at the centre, this is a stunning antique diamond engagement ring from the magical and romantic Edwardian era.   Stock# ES7812 Hallmarked: Birmingham 1902 $15,800

Here is a truly magnificent 18ct yellow gold hand made Victorian era antique five stone diamond engagement ring that is not only set with those five magnificent European cut diamonds, but eight smaller rose cut diamonds as well. European cut diamonds share the same number of facets as today's modern round brilliant cut diamond, but as they were cut by hand over a century ago and more knowledge has been gained about the angles to cut, the European cut diamond usually has a higher top and bottom than the modern round brilliant cut. So highly desired in recent years, the European cut is being again cut in diamond cutting workshops today, however nothing beats genuine antique cut diamonds for all of their charm and character. The five main diamonds total 1.76 carats and graduate from the smaller ones at each end to the larger one in the centre. The proportions of the diamonds are just perfect and this ring has the diamonds sitting comfortably across the finger. And then between each of the larger diamonds are two rose cut diamonds to add to not only the sparkle of the ring, but also highlight the incredible attention to detail and craftsmanship that went into hand making this ring well over a century ago. These additional diamonds total 0.04 carats and like genuine antique European cut diamonds, have all the charm of being hand cut in a wonderful bygone era. Measuring 6mm wide at the centre by 21mm across, this engagement ring will also easily accommodate a wedding ring alongside. Then looking at the ring from the side, you will be both amazed and impressed at the incredible scroll work that shows the quality of craftsmanship that went into hand making this ring. This is a superb example of a genuine antique diamond engagement ring, and one that will continually be loved and admired.   Stock# ES7785 Circa: 1890 $14,800
