Opal and Rose Cut Diamond Ring with Glasgow Band

16th century
Description

This is a ring with a story.

The Opal and diamond part of the ring is very old perhaps as far back as the 15th Century.

It was once a locket and has been placed on to the superb quality Glasgow band. Beautifully hallmarked.

This ring is a little bit different it has an artisan quality about it and is a rare Glasgow piece.

There are a few points about the piece that makes this ring stand out.

The 18ct broad yellow gold shank is decorated with pattern on the outside and has a large easy to read hallmark on the inside of the shank.

The diamonds are quite an unusual cut, leaning towards a rose cut they have a natural uncut unpolished finish. This cut is in line with what you’d expect from this period of history.

The central picture perfect luminous green Opal is of top quality and colour. The smooth gold slightly raised surround which holds the Opal gives a clean cut standout edge highlighting the surrounding diamonds.

These features add to the overall look and quality that exudes from this ring.

I feel that this ring is extra special given it age and quality and of course it’s very unique story.

Opal approx: 0.80ct

Diamonds approx: 1ct

Overall across top: 13.7 x 17.3mm

Size N and a half.

FAQs

A Victorian opal cluster ring features a central oval opal cabochon surrounded by a halo of accent gemstones, typically rose-cut diamonds, set in silver-topped yellow gold settings.

Jewellers during this period often set diamonds in silver fronts to accentuate their white colour, bonded to yellow gold bands bearing regional assay office hallmarks such as Glasgow.

Authentic Victorian rings feature hand-cut rose diamonds with irregular facets, crimped or silver-topped settings, and crisp historic maker or regional assay hallmarks inside the shank.

An antique opal cluster ring serves as a focal statement piece, complementing minimalist modern tailoring and pairing alongside simple gold bands for layered texture.

Opals are porous and sensitive to moisture and thermal shock; wipe gently with a soft dry cloth and avoid prolonged exposure to water, liquid cleaners, or extreme heat.
