FAQs

A Victorian five stone ring typically features a linear arrangement of five alternating or matching gemstones, often diamonds and sapphires, flush-set or claw-set in a graduated or uniform row.

Late 19th-century rings were predominantly crafted using yellow gold, ranging from 9-carat to 18-carat, often featuring natural untreated sapphires and hand-cut old mine or old European diamonds.

Authentic pieces often exhibit hand-carved settings, characteristic hallmarks, slight irregularities from handcrafting, and specific gemstone cuts typical of the era, such as old mine cuts.

Antique rings add historic character to modern outfits and are frequently worn as stacking rings, standalone statement pieces, or unique alternative engagement rings.

Preservation requires storing pieces in individual soft pouches, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners or ultrasonic baths, and having settings periodically inspected by a professional jeweller.
