Artisan Antiques has dated this piece to the Victorian era.
A celestial theme/style is captured wonderfully by the garnet cabochon which features a lovely embedded gold star and a single-seed pearl to accent the top.
Owing to its gorgeous domed design, it allows light to pass through, changing hues and reflections depending on the lighting. Such intricate and sensational design truly comes to life upon wearing this ring under natural lighting where many different shades of red/brown and maroon can be fully appreciated. Additionally, the ring itself is of a wonderful three-coil design which accentuates the top cabochon even further.
In low-light situations such as at late-night events, parties or even candlelight, the garnet's surface creates a further unique and contrasted appearance that presents an aura of mystique and unparalleled elegance.
Overall, a splendid piece of fine Victorian jewellery whether it be a special gift or a personal addition. This ring would most certainly make for a distinguished addition for the discerning jewellery lover and an instant conversation starter upon wearing. Perfect as a single ring to accentuate your outfit or among various other Victorian jewellery.
The ring is unmarked as is common with gold articles of the period and as such, we have fully tested it for 14ct solid gold.
Garnet is known to be the birthstone for January.
All of our rings come with a complimentary modern hard shell ring gift box with a velvet interior.
