Description

A divine Georgian ring with a central paste with the deep honey colour of a golden topaz or sherry citrine, within a halo of carefully hand cut white pastes. All the stones are foil backed, as was typical up till the mid-19th century to make them reflect the candlelight better. Brilliant cut gemstones didn't appear until later and the old cuts didn't sparkle as much as modern stones so it gave them a little help. Practically, it just means you should keep them away from water to avoid it leaking behind the stones and damaging the foil - don't wear them to go swimming or do the washing-up!

The ring tests as nine-carat gold though there are no hallmarks; we believe the head of the ring was taken from a more dainty shank and reset onto its current band, quite possibly still in the 19th century. There is a faint dark line where the shank has been soldered on the inside.

The ring is in very good antique condition with minor abrasions to the stone facets, as you would expect with a ring of this age.

Size: M (UK), approx 6.5 (US). The paste-set face of the ring measures approx 1.3 x 1.2cm.

Weight: 2.7g.

FREE INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING!

Apologies but we cannot ship to Germany, any orders from Germany will be cancelled and refunded.

FAQs

The Georgian period spans from 1714 to 1837, encompassing the reigns of the four King Georges, and is characterised by handcrafted pieces often featuring hand-cut gemstones and closed-back settings.

Jewellery from this era frequently utilised lower-carat gold, silver-topped gold settings to enhance diamond and paste brilliance, and hand-cut stones such as foil-backed glass paste, garnets, and topazes.

Authentic pieces often exhibit closed-back metal settings, hand-cut stones with irregular facets, lack of modern hallmarks, and evidence of individual hand fabrication rather than mass production.

Antique rings can be worn as standalone statement pieces or stacked with contemporary bands to create a contrasting juxtaposition of historical craftsmanship and modern minimalism.

Because older settings and foil-backed stones are sensitive to moisture, antique rings should never be submerged in water or ultrasonic cleaners; instead, they should be gently wiped with a soft, dry cloth.
