To find out more about the gemstones in this ring:

Provenance

Original to c.1900, this incredible diamond ring is a unique and rare example of early 20th century craftsmanship, known as a tiara ring. Set with a pear-cut diamond with the most stunning antique proportions. In an age long before laser machines cut diamonds with exacting precision, each stone was faceted by hand and cutting a drop-shape diamond was no easy feat. 

Elegantly claw-set above two scrolling motifs, each terminated by a round old-cut diamond. The scrolls gracefully flow to form the shoulders of the ring, each further adorned with grain-set diamonds, to a solid 18ct yellow gold band. To bottom, a cushion-shaped old-mine cut diamond also claw-set in an open-back setting. 

The design of this ring resembles a fleur-de-lys motif or tiara, and has both the elegancy and delicacy for which Edwardian and Belle Époque jewels are so loved. Rings with similar designs do exist, however they are rare and highly collectable.
