Victorian Ruby and Diamond 18ct Gold Band

A beautiful rows of natural Rubies are of wonderful clarity and colour with fabulous rows of old mine hand cut Diamonds, a Victorian treasure. 

Featuring eleven round cut Rubies each displaying a wonderful deep rich cherry red colour.

These rare Rubies are interspaced by old mine hand cut sparkling Diamonds.

The white Diamonds are full of fire and life. 

Due to the shape of the rough and because the Diamonds were hand crafted, dimensions varied from stone to stone. This made every old mine cut Diamond unique, or put poetically, have its own personality.

The simple setting enhances these beautiful gem stones, without distraction.

Enhanced carved shoulders leading to an 18 carat yellow Gold band.

These fabulous gemstones are held in place by strong claws that somehow manage to look robust and elegant at the same time.

From the back we have glorious golden windows so we can see the backs of these precious gemstones.

Finely handcrafted in warm 18 carat yellow Gold.

Dates: 1890
