The Features of Victorian Aquamarines
Victorian aquamarines are often found in larger, more impressive cuts than other gemstones of the period, as the natural crystal size allowed for grander displays. The victorian aquamarine engagement rings of this era frequently feature step cuts or oval shapes that maximise the stone's inner light. Set against 15ct or 18ct gold, the contrast between the icy blue of the aquamarine and the rich metal creates a look that is both striking and timeless.
Signature Designs of the Era
In the Victorian period, aquamarines were often paired with small diamonds to enhance their sparkle. You will frequently see "gallery" settings with intricate scrollwork visible from the side, a hallmark of high-quality Victorian work. Some designs also incorporate the "Toi et Moi" style or classic three-stone arrangements, representing the past, present, and future of a couple’s journey together.
A Serene Proposal with History
If you are looking for a ring that symbolises peace and clarity, a victorian aquamarine engagement ring is the ideal choice for your proposal.
