Gorgeous antique sapphire and pearl ring made in the early 1900’s
This ring is so absolutely gorgeous and charming and looks and sits so well on the finger where it will simply always bring a smile to your face when you look upon it on your finger.
Hand made in 18 carat gold in the early 1900's, the ring is made with six pearls surrounding a sapphire. However looking close you will fall in love with a few small but charming aspects of this ring that highlights why there is nothing quite like a genuine antique ring.
To begin with the setting around the pearls is called a millgrain setting which can be seen as both the very fine and elegant crimping along the edge of the setting. This small feature really elevates the ring as does the sapphire sits in what appears to be a star pattern around it. It is these small but important attention to detail that really makes this ring so much more special and unique.
The sapphire measures 0.12 carats in size and the cluster itself measures 9.5mm in diameter, making it the perfect proportions for any finger.
As sweet and charming today as when it was made, this antique sapphire and diamond ring is still as gorgeous as ever.

Antique sapphire and pearl ring made in the 1890’s
This antique sapphire and pearl ring will so easily suit any woman of any age and sits so well on the finger.
Made in 18 carat yellow gold in the late Victorian era of the 1890's, in the centre is a lovely natural sapphire that measures 0.18 carats and is gypsy set which is a term given when there is a star pattern surrounding the stone which was created by the jeweller pushing into the gold resulting in not only a star pattern but also a bead to add to the security of the stone.
Then there is the pearl that is set on each side which highlight both the blue of the sapphire and the yellow from the gold, and then if this wasn't enough, there is the attractive engraved shoulders that highlight the ring even further.
Measuring 4.8mm wide at the centre and tapering down to an elegant 2mm wide at the back, this is a perfect example of an antique ring that can so easily be worn by any woman of any age without breaking the bank and always looking so elegant.
