Edwardian Sapphire & Diamond Cluster Ring c.1920
An unusual late Edwardian sapphire and diamond cluster ring.
This stylish ring has a central old cut diamond in a slightly raised rubover setting within a border of fancy cut sapphires in a marquise design. The sapphires are mounted in a pavé setting within a rubover platinum border. The ring has an outer border of small diamonds with a pretty scalloped edge.
Typical of the Edwardian era, this elegant ring is set in platinum onto a yellow gold finely detailed underbezel. The ring has platinum faced tapered shoulders which are finely engraved with a 'Greek key' design to each side in yellow gold onto a plain shank.
The ring is beautifully low set to the finger and a fabulous example of Edwardian craftsmanship.
This ring would have been originally designed and made as a 'dress ring' and as such we would not recommend it for 'heavy' everyday wear.
