An Edwardian 18ct Gold, Sapphire and Diamond Ring

A beguiling Edwardian-era treasure, this 18ct gold sapphire and diamond seven-stone ring is a poem in precious gems - elegant, evocative, and full of quiet fire. At its heart lie three cushion-cut sapphires, each radiating a deep, inky blue that seems to hold twilight within it. Their velvety glow is perfectly offset by four old mine-cut diamonds - two to each side - offering a gentle sparkle that dances in the light. The contrast between the moody depths of the sapphires and the warm fire of the diamonds speaks of a beautifully balanced design, rich in both history and emotion. The central sapphire bears a surface-reaching inclusion, visible in the photographs, a subtle testament to its natural origin and long journey through time. Each of the sapphires shows delicate nicks and nibbles - typical of antique stones and entirely in keeping with their age and character. None of these marks affect the structural integrity or wearability of the piece, which remains as enchanting and resilient as ever. Set in buttery 18ct yellow gold, the band features discreet sizing beads within the shank, allowing for a comfortable and secure fit - currently measuring a size O on the mandrel. Mild resizing should be possible but please check before purchasing. This ring is a true romantic’s piece - an Edwardian gem that carries a whisper of the past, perfect for those who treasure beauty with a soul, and history that can be worn close to the skin.
