Provenance
Original to 1892, this Victorian five-stone ring is set with two natural blue sapphires, cushion-cut and perfectly matched in colour. They have a gorgeous midnight blue hue and are rub-over set in open-back settings. Set to centre with three cushion old-mine cut diamonds, grain-set diagonally in a lozenge shaped panel.
The sapphires are partially framed by sinuous gold work terminating with scrolling motifs. The shoulders are split with unusual open-work, before gently tapering to a solid 18ct yellow gold band with engraved ridge work flowing the entire way around.
