INQUIRE ABOUT THIS ITEM

ABOUT THIS RING

There are amethysts, and then there are amethysts. This exceptional specimen, presumably of rare Russian-Siberian origin, is the ultimate! Radiating with an utterly enchanting and irrepressible rich royal purple glow, the cushion-cut gem, weighing approximately 13.50 carats, is rightfully enthroned in a regal setting fit for the queen of amethysts. Artfully and masterfully hand fabricated in 18K yellow gold accented with silver, the decisively 'Frenchy' design incorporates fleur-de-lys prongs, fanciful foliate motifs and scrolls, all of which are finished with expert hand-engraved details. No guarantees, but don't be surprised when your subjects bow down and kiss your ring! A truly rare and ravishing Victorian-era (late 19th century) jewel. Currently ring size 5 3/4.

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.
