An elegant Victorian ruby and diamond cluster ring.
 
This pretty ring has a central old cut ruby within a border of small diamonds in a finely claw set coronet mount.  The ruby is a vivid pinkish red in colour - assessed as Sri Lankan in origin.  The ring has 3 slightly graduated diamonds mounted to each shoulder in a spitch setting with a rubover border.
 
The ring sits very low to the finger typical of the era and has a plain shank.
 
It would make a beautiful unique engagement ring.
