Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 1900s:
Carved scroll gallery: half-hoop design widely made at the turn of the century.
Old-cut diamond spacers: hand-cut facets between the three opal cabochons.
Three graduated opal cabochons: arrangement favoured in late Victorian and Edwardian rings.
Softened carving on the shoulders: gentle wear from decades of use on a finger.

This Edwardian 18ct yellow gold ring dates from around 1900. It features three graduated oval cabochon opals interspersed with two pairs of old mine cut diamonds, set in an ornate carved gallery with plain shank sides. The opals display vibrant green and blue tones alongside tiny touches of flame orange. The visible photograph displays a dark brown ring box lined with white satin, gold-tooled borders on the box edges, and a polished gold band. Measuring 2 cm high, 2 cm wide, and 0.5 cm deep, this UK size L-M piece is suitable for everyday wear on the hand. It is not hallmarked, which is typical for antique jewellery of this period. The ring works well as an heirloom-style accessory or a distinctive addition to a personal collection.

FAQs

Edwardian rings crafted around 1900 typically feature light-coloured gemstones like opals paired with diamonds, often set in yellow gold or platinum with carved scrollwork galleries.

Rings from this era were commonly crafted from 18ct yellow gold or platinum, utilising natural Australian opals cut into cabochons and rose-cut or old European-cut diamond accents.

Authentic pieces feature period hallmarks indicating metal purity, carved or pierced galleries underneath the settings, and hand-cut gemstone facets typical of turn-of-the-century craftsmanship.

A classic gemstone trilogy ring acts as a standalone statement piece on the hand, pairing easily with modern gold bands or simple everyday attire.

Opals are porous gemstones that should be cleaned gently using warm water and a soft cloth, avoiding immersion in water, harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, or extreme heat.
