Large Victorian 3.2 Ct Ruby & 2.12 Ct Diamond Three Stone Carved Half Hoop Ring

19th century
Description

Large Victorian 3.2 Ct Ruby & 2.12 Ct Diamond Three-Stone Carved Half Hoop Ring – Circa 1890

A stunning and substantial Victorian-era three-stone ring, crafted in rich 18ct yellow gold, set with a vibrant natural ruby and two beautifully matched old mine cut diamonds. Dating from around 1890, this exquisite antique ring features classic carved half-hoop scrollwork detailing to the shoulders, adding both depth and elegance.

At the centre, a richly saturated natural ruby, weighing approximately 3.20 carats, is flanked by two chunky old mine cut diamonds with a combined weight of approximately 2.12 carats. The balance, proportion, and craftsmanship reflect the finest qualities of late 19th-century English jewellery.

Though unmarked (as was common before hallmarking regulations became compulsory in 1972), the ring has been professionally tested and confirmed to be 18ct gold.

FAQs

A Victorian half hoop ring is a style where gemstones are set across the top semi-circle of the band, often featuring hand-carved scrollwork along the sides of the gallery.

Rings from this era were typically crafted in 15ct or 18ct yellow gold and set with natural precious gemstones such as rubies, sapphires, and hand-cut diamonds.

Authentic pieces display historical British hallmarks, carved settings, claw-set mountings, and hand-cut gemstones such as cushion or old mine cuts.

A Victorian trilogy ring can be worn as a standalone accent piece or stacked alongside plain modern yellow gold bands to contrast historical detail with clean lines.

Clean using warm water, mild liquid soap, and a soft-bristled toothbrush, avoiding ultrasonic cleaners or harsh chemical solvents that could affect antique settings.
