Details
Dating to circa 1900, this Victorian ring is a rare example of the era's more playful design instincts, setting its 2.05 carat cushion brilliant cut diamond east-west across the finger rather than in the expected north-south orientation. Graded J color and SI1 clarity, the diamond still throws bright, warm flashes of light from its broad cushion facets, its pale golden undertone echoing the 14k yellow gold that surrounds it.
Beneath the stone, the gallery is worked in delicate, hand-pierced filigree — airy, lace-like openwork that lightens the mounting's visual weight and lets light pass up through the diamond from below, a hallmark of genuine turn-of-the-century craftsmanship. The gold itself shows the soft, warm patina of over a century of wear, its color deepened to a rich, buttery tone.
Remarkably light at just 1.49 grams and sized to a 5.5, sizable, this ring wears with a graceful, low profile that belies its striking, sideways-set diamond.
