Description
Hand made in 18ct gold, the ring does not have a fineness mark (which is not unusual for rings of this age) but XRF tests as 18ct gold throughout. There is a tiny makers mark W.B. which unfortunately I have not been able to match with a jeweller.
At the centre is a very small old cut diamond set in a crimped collet. It is flanked by four delightfully plump turquoise cabochons in a cruciform pattern, each set in a crimped collet. Between each of the turquoises is a tiny rose cut diamond, again set in a crimped collet setting. The shoulders of the ring are carved with glorious scrolls and flourishes, and set with a smaller turquoise cabochon. The band is the classic half-round shape.
The face of the ring measures 9.95mm wide. It sits 5.2mm high on the finger.
