Details
Dating to the late 19th Century, this magnificent antique Victorian diamond navette cluster ring is encrusted with a spectacular array of chunky old mine cut diamonds, graded SI1 clarity - H colour. The largest weighs approx. 0.40ct in the centre, with a grand total of approx. 2.75 carats across its large marquise gallery.
Throughout the 19th century, old cut diamonds were prized as the height of refinement, each stone hand-cut by master artisans to capture a soft, flickering brilliance that seemed to dance by candlelight. Though less refined than modern cuts, their irregular facets and distinctive inner fire possess a character and warmth that no machine could ever replicate, embodying the romance and craftsmanship of a bygone era.
Finely crafted in 18ct yellow gold, this stunning Victorian diamond cluster ring features engraved, scrolled shoulders on either side and looks graceful pointing down the length of the finger. It’s a testament to the grandeur of 19th century craftsmanship, with a dazzling collection of natural hand-cut diamonds performing across the top of its stage.
