This authentic Victorian ruby and diamond ring is crafted in solid 18ct yellow gold and features a classic three-stone ruby arrangement accented by small diamonds. The rubies display rich, deep red hues and have a combined estimated weight of approximately 1.00 carat, with visual characteristics consistent with natural, unheated stones.

The rubies are complemented by old-cut diamonds totalling approximately 0.10 carats, set between the rubies to enhance brilliance while preserving the refined elegance typical of Victorian jewellery.

The ring is fully British hallmarked, clearly showing:

• Crown – Gold standard mark

• 18 – 18ct gold fineness

• Chester assay mark

• Date letter “G” – corresponding to 1889, firmly placing the ring in the late Victorian period

The carved shoulders and traditional claw setting further support its Victorian origin, making this a highly desirable and collectible antique piece.
