Description
This Edwardian half-eternity ring features a string of rubies with a total estimated weight of 1ct set on the face of the ring. The claws are cleverly worked into the design, emulating the look of a rub-over setting and making it appear as though the five untreated rubies are slowly melting into the band. They lead down to an etched gallery with a ridged appearance adding subtle texture to the otherwise polished 18ct yellow-gold shank. Engraved shoulders also add an element of character to this otherwise understated ring. The stones are rich in saturation and pair well with other gemstones or diamonds, the profile and shape of this ring also lends it to being a wonderful piece to stack, it is sure to become an everyday favourite as it complements almost anything.
