This Edwardian solitaire engagement ring dates from circa 1910. The piece is fashioned from 18k yellow gold with a slender band, featuring a raised four-claw setting that holds an old mine cut diamond, complemented by slim and tapering shoulders. The metal has a polished gold finish, the central stone displays a J colour grade with VS2 clarity and weighs 0.83 carats, and the total weight of the piece is 1.69 grams. Today, this ring is worn as a piece of fine antique jewellery on the hand. The diamond measures 5.71 x 4.70 mm and sits 5.1 mm from the finger, with a ring size of L in the UK or 5 1/2 in the US.

FAQs

Crafted typically between 1901 and 1915, Edwardian solitaire rings feature hand-cut diamonds set in gold or platinum claw mountings, defined by symmetry and refined metalwork.

Rings from the early 1900s were predominantly constructed using yellow gold, platinum, or gold with platinum-topped settings, fitted with hand-faceted old cut diamonds.

Authentic old cut diamonds possess a deeper pavilion, a smaller table facet, and an open culet visible through the top of the gem, offering a distinct facet pattern under light.

An antique diamond solitaire pairs with plain yellow gold bands or slender textured stacking rings to create a subtle contrast between historical and contemporary pieces.

Clean gently using warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft toothbrush, and ensure the claw settings are periodically checked by a specialist jeweller.
