This Edwardian gypsy ring is created in 18ct yellow gold with a smooth, polished finish and a rich golden colour. The tapered band has a thick profile measuring 5 to 2.5 mm and holds three old cut diamonds in a flush star setting, each surrounded by detailed starburst engraving on the domed surface. The metal shows no surface rubbing and the diamonds measure between 2 and 3 mm across. The piece carries a total weight of 4.1 g and corresponds to a British ring size Q or US size 8. Jewellery of this type suits daily wear on the hand as a personal accessory, pairing easily with modern collections or antique ensembles. It fits comfortably on a finger for personal adornment and functions well as a heritage piece for special occasions or everyday styling in contemporary wardrobes.

FAQs

A gypsy ring features gemstones set flush into a thick metal band, ensuring the stones do not protrude. Popular during the Victorian and Edwardian periods, these bands frequently feature decorative starburst engravings around each stone.

Edwardian gypsy rings were predominantly crafted using solid 18ct or 9ct yellow gold. They were commonly set with old mine cut or old European cut diamonds, sapphires, rubies, or pearls.

Authentic Edwardian pieces feature historical hallmarks indicating metal purity and assay location, combined with hand-engraved starburst settings and hand-faceted old cut diamonds showing slight asymmetry.

The flush, smooth setting of a gypsy ring makes it suitable for everyday wear. It works equally well worn alone as a statement band or layered alongside minimalist modern gold rings.

Clean the piece gently using warm water, mild liquid soap, and a soft toothbrush to remove accumulated debris from around the settings. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners to protect historical metalwork.
