Antique, Victorian diamond five-stone engagement ring

Provenance Original to c.1900, this late Victorian diamond ring is set with five old-cut diamonds, carefully and subtly graduated in size. These diamonds were all hand-cut more than a 125 years ago at least, and due to their antique hand facetted nature, no two old cut diamonds are ever identical. Each has its own characteristic sparkle and old-world charm that make these diamonds so desirable. Claw-set above an ornately carved gallery with beautiful scrolling motifs and foliate style engraved shoulders which elegantly drop to a solid 18ct yellow gold D-shape band.
