How do I care for my ring?

Clean the piece gently using warm soapy water and a soft brush to remove daily oils from beneath the stones. Avoid harsh ultrasonic cleaners, particularly if the ruby has undergone standard clarity enhancement treatments. Have a professional jeweller inspect the claw settings periodically to ensure the platinum or gold remains secure. Removing the ring during heavy manual labour prevents unnecessary wear to the delicate metalwork.

Are these rings suitable for daily wear?

Rubies rank nine on the Mohs hardness scale, making them exceptionally durable for everyday use on the hand. The surrounding gold or platinum settings provide adequate protection when constructed with solid bezels or sturdy prongs. Prudent owners still remove vintage jewellery during gardening, exercising, or heavy lifting to protect antique metal edges. Routine checks by a specialist help maintain the structural integrity of the original mount.

How can I date an art deco ring?

Dating relies on stylistic markers such as geometric symmetry, stepped shoulders, and the prevalence of platinum over yellow gold. Hallmarks stamped inside the band often provide assay office marks and date letters that narrow down the year of creation. Gemstone cutting styles also offer clues, as old cut diamonds and specific step cuts predate the standardised modern brilliant cut. Comparing the construction methods against documented timelines helps confirm the era.

What does unheated Burmese mean?

This designation refers to natural rubies originating from the Mogok region of Burma that have not undergone thermal enhancement. Earth-mined stones with this pedigree display desirable natural saturation and inclusions appreciated by collectors. Independent gemmological certificates usually accompany these specific pieces to verify their geographic origin and lack of heat treatment. Such documentation adds notable provenance to vintage jewellery.
