Provenance
Original to c.1900, this diamond five-stone is beautifully made. Set with five round old-cut diamonds, carefully graduated in size and each grain-set within a square shaped border. The shoulders of this ring are so unique, with carved openwork scrolls and a crossed lattice-like design. The shoulders taper to a solid 18ct yellow gold band and the low-profile of this ring makes it extremely comfortable and practical to wear everyday. The perfect engagement ring for those looking for something with character and charm!
