Late Victorian 0.90 Carat Oval Cut Ruby and Old Mine Diamond Cluster Ring

The Story

The cluster ring has been a popular jewelry motif for decades, but there is just something about the Victorian’s take. This era saw the rise of the Industrial Revolution and new, more intricate techniques in metalwork made their way to jewelry as well! The metalwork for cluster rings became more delicate, with lighter prongs, and gems that were set closer together than in the previous era. This 0.90 carat ruby cluster ring is the perfect example! The juicy oval cut ruby positively pops against the contrast created by 0.25 carats of dazzling Old Mine Cut Diamonds that sparkle from their 18 karat white gold and silver setting. The intricate openwork of the basket lets light to flow through, allowing maximum sparkle and shine in this perennial favorite style. This piece would make an excellent birthstone ring or gemstone engagement ring.
