This exquisite late Victorian era 18ct Yellow Gold ring is simple yet elegant. Crafted in rich 18ct Yellow Gold, it features a trilogy of old cut diamonds that have been beautifully hand star set into a wide setting with scalloped edges. Flowing on from this is the beautiful scrollwork on the shoulders bringing you down to the band. It is a stunning example of the work and craftsmanship that went into jewellery at the time.

Despite being crafted back in the late Victorian era (between 1885-1901), the style and design is still immensely wearable today. Elegant yet simple with a nice low profile, it is very comfortable to wear and adds charm to any outfit.
