This fantastic ring has three bright, juicy synthetic rubies totalling 0.42ct and two rose cut diamonds of 0.06ct total. Ornate detailing accompanies an openwork boat-shaped head, designed for the light to hit the gemstones, resulting in a fabulous sparkle. The shoulders have a lined motif which leads into a plain band.
This ring, circa the Victorian era, has a worn hallmark. We can identify that it has Chester's Assay Office mark.
