A magical Edwardian five stone ring crafted in 18k yellow gold and platinum.

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.

Edwardian jewellery design from circa 1901 to 1915 is renowned for lightweight, lace-like platinum mountings, delicate millegrain borders, and refined scrollwork. Rings from this period frequently featured high-grade precious gemstones arranged in symmetrical, horizontal configurations such as five-stone bands.

Jewellers during the Edwardian era commonly set old European or old mine cut diamonds alongside natural coloured gemstones like sapphires, rubies, and emeralds. The settings often combined a yellow gold band with a platinum or silver top to highlight the brightness of the white diamonds.

Old cut diamonds display smaller table facets, high crowns, and open culets visible through the top of the gem. Natural unheated sapphires show distinct internal growth structures and colour zoning under microscopic inspection, lacking the uniform clarity of modern heat-treated stones.

A low-profile five-stone band pairs well stacked against plain yellow gold wedding bands or modern slender diamond rings. Combining pieces with varied metal textures and diamond cuts creates a curated contrast suitable for daily wear.

Clean antique gemstone rings using warm water, mild detergent, and a soft-bristled brush. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can dislodge antique claw settings or damage delicate natural inclusions within untreated gemstones.
