Antique Victorian 15ct Ruby And Seed Pearl Ring - Birmingham 1870
Crafted from rich and bright 15ct rose gold and set with five graduating half seed Pearls in horizontal formation, accented with two natural pinky red Rubies and small rough cut pale yellow stones our gemologist believes to be Citrine.
The gallery is as equally beautiful displaying ribbon-like scroll work, to the embellished ornate shoulders.
A complete set of crisp hallmarks are present, sadly the makers mark is faded and unidentifiable.
For the petite finger, this early Victorian ring is very low rise on the finger and and truly and exquisite reminder of a time gone by.
