Description

We are delighted to offer this superb Victorian 18ct gold ruby and diamond navette ring made in Birmingham in 1886 by G.Bro.

Distinctly Victorian and distinguished from contemporary pieces, this gorgeous piece presents one central ruby encompassed by a cluster of 16 old-cut diamonds that glisten wonderfully, particularly under natural lighting.

The central ruby has an almost 'candy-like' pinkish-red hue that is so endearing. This colour creates a wonderful contrast to the surrounding diamonds which not only accentuates the glamour of the ring but brings your attention to the centre of the ring.

Furthermore, the ring itself is wonderfully crafted in antique 18ct gold with fine engravings on the 'shoulders' of the ring and fine claw settings.

Overall, a wonderful statement piece with no area left unembellished nor bland - a fine addition to any collection of antique jewellery lovers, whether be it as a special gift or an indulgent treat for yourself.

The ring is also exemplary of English antique gold hallmarking - this piece features full hallmarks on the inner band with crisp marks.

Ruby is known to be the birthstone of July and the diamonds for April.

All of our rings come with a complimentary modern hard shell ring gift box with a velvet interior.

FAQs

The navette shape, meaning little ship in French, features an elongated, boat-like silhouette with pointed ends, which became immensely popular during the Georgian and Victorian eras for creating finger-lengthening cluster designs.

Authentic pieces from this period are typically crafted from 18-carat or 15-carat yellow gold, often paired with silver settings for gemstones to enhance their brilliance, and feature British hallmark stamps indicating the assay office and year of manufacture.

Authenticity is determined by examining the hand-cut stones, such as old mine cuts or rose cuts with irregular facets, closed-back settings in older pieces, handcrafted collet mounts, and signs of genuine wear under magnification.

An antique navette ring serves as a striking statement piece that can be worn solo on the index or middle finger to highlight its geometric silhouette, or paired with minimalist modern bands for a curated mixed-era aesthetic.

Antique jewellery should be cleaned gently using a soft microfibre cloth and warm soapy water, avoiding ultrasonic cleaners and harsh chemicals due to the sensitivity of organic metals, foil-backs, and softer natural gemstones like rubies.
