Antique Victorian Moonstone Ring 6ct Moonstone

19th century
For Sale by Laurelle Ltd
Description

An enchanting antique early Victorian moonstone solitaire ring boasting a magnificent cabochon moonstone, weighing approx. 6 carats. It has a lovely, smooth surface that is semi-transparent and exhibits a bright, silvery-blue schiller that floats across the surface when it catches the light.

The mystifying moonstone derives its name from the stone’s ethereal, luminescent light that was once believed to be moonlight in solid form. In Greek mythology they were associated with Selene, the feminine moon Goddess and said to be a path to love, wisdom and new beginnings.

The moonstone is held securely in an 18ct gold claw mount and features Birmingham hallmarks within the band that have worn overtime but appear to date to 1842. It’s a wonderful statement piece and in excellent condition.

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Victorian moonstone jewellery features natural feldspar gemstones displaying adularescence, often cut into smooth cabochons and set in yellow gold mountings typical of nineteenth-century design.

These rings typically feature gold or silver mountings, handcrafted claw or collet settings, and smooth oval cabochon moonstones cut to highlight natural light dispersion.

Authentic pieces show evidence of hand-finishing, period-accurate gold hallmarks or makers marks, and natural light-reflecting internal structures within the gemstone.

A Victorian moonstone ring functions as a standalone statement piece, pairing well with modern tailored garments, neutral palettes, or layered alongside slim gold bands.

Moonstones require gentle handling due to their natural cleavage plane; clean using warm soapy water and a soft cloth while avoiding ultrasonic cleaners and chemicals.
