Description

A beautiful Edwardian ring with a long and distinguished history features a one carat natural Turquoise cabochon displaying an ideal very consistent light sky blue colour, which is hard to find in large Turquoises, which tend to be patchy due to the way they grow in the earth.

The striking colour of this stone is offset by Platinum and encircled by sparkling old mined hand cut Diamonds with a combined weight of one carat, the perfect finishing touch for this extraordinary, bright central precious vintage gemstone.

Quality:  G Colour  Clarity:  VVS1

These Diamonds have exceptional shimmer and glisten with immense sparkle and brilliance.

The whiteness and lustre of Platinum enhances the colour of the Diamonds.

Dating from the mid 1800's through the 1900's, old mine hand cut Diamonds are most often found in Georgian and Victorian jewellery.

Primarily hand cut with the aid of early machines, they are a favorite stone for those who love stones with deeply individual character, as each stone is hand cut and uniquely beautiful.

An old mine cut diamond evokes the past, when Diamonds were measured by eye and cut by hand, so this historic Diamond cut is a great choice if you're looking for an engagement ring with antique or vintage qualities.


Turquoise is perhaps the oldest stone in man’s history, the talisman of kings, shamans, and warriors. It is a stone of protetion, strong and opaque, yet soothing to the touch, healing to the eye, as if carved from an azure heaven and slipped to earth. I found this quote online and it says it all!

The overall finish of the ring is wonderful. The shank is substantial, yet extremely comfortable to wear.

The most amazing and practical low setting with a smooth surface that won't catch.
