ABOUT THIS RING

Classic English turn-of-the-century late-Victorian style is embodied in this very sweet and lovely "carved" three-stone sapphire ring from London, England dated 1916. The trio of bright blue gemstones is punctuated by two pairs of old mine-cut diamonds, all of which are set in rich 18K yellow gold mounting adorned with elegant scrolled details on the side gallery and along the shoulders. Total sapphire weight, 1.20 carats. English hallmarks inside the ring shank. Now, and forever, ring size 5. Condition note: sapphires show wear commensurate with the age of the ring.

About Victorian Jewelry

The eclectic Victorians didn’t limit themselves when it came to motifs and themes—if it struck their fancy, they turned it into jewelry. Sweet and sentimental with a distinct romantic streak, Victorian gems expanded upon their Georgian predecessors. The array of styles that blossomed (sometimes quite literally) during this era endure to this day.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
