Description

We are delighted to offer this superb Victorian 18ct gold ruby and diamond navette ring made in Birmingham in 1886 by G.Bro.

Distinctly Victorian and distinguished from contemporary pieces, this gorgeous piece presents one central ruby encompassed by a cluster of 16 old-cut diamonds that glisten wonderfully, particularly under natural lighting.

The central ruby has an almost 'candy-like' pinkish-red hue that is so endearing. This colour creates a wonderful contrast to the surrounding diamonds which not only accentuates the glamour of the ring but brings your attention to the centre of the ring.

Furthermore, the ring itself is wonderfully crafted in antique 18ct gold with fine engravings on the 'shoulders' of the ring and fine claw settings.

Overall, a wonderful statement piece with no area left unembellished nor bland - a fine addition to any collection of antique jewellery lovers, whether be it as a special gift or an indulgent treat for yourself.

The ring is also exemplary of English antique gold hallmarking - this piece features full hallmarks on the inner band with crisp marks.

Ruby is known to be the birthstone of July and the diamonds for April.

All of our rings come with a complimentary modern hard shell ring gift box with a velvet interior.

A navette design, also known as a marquis shape, features an elongated, boat-like silhouette with pointed ends, which became popular during the 18th and 19th centuries to maximise finger coverage and sparkle.

Victorian cluster rings frequently utilised 18ct or 15ct yellow gold paired with natural mined rubies, sapphires, emeralds, and old European or mine-cut diamonds.

Authentic pieces often feature period hallmarks or makers marks, handmade settings with irregularities typical of pre-industrial craftsmanship, and closed or open-backed foil settings consistent with 19th-century techniques.

An antique cluster ring pairs effectively with sleek, minimalist contemporary bands to create a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern design.

Antique jewellery should be cleaned gently using warm soapy water and a soft brush, avoiding harsh chemical ultrasonic cleaners that can dislodge fragile stones or damage older settings.
