Edwardian Diamond Trilogy Ring
Cute antique trilogy ring dating from the Edwardian period, circa 1910. The three diamonds are old cuts with big, bright flashes as the light hits the larger pavilion facets - each with their own unique charm on account of the hand-cut and imprecise facet arrangement. The 18ct & PLAT stamp inside the band indicates the period and the metals used: 18 carat gold with platinum prong settings.
Trilogy rings are believed to have originated in ancient Egypt, where they were thought to represent the three phases of the sun (rising, high noon, and setting) or the three stages of life (birth, life, and death). The Greeks and Romans also used three-stone rings to symbolise the past, present, and future, but they have been popular as engagement rings since the Victorian era as a way to signify the past present and future of a relationship and the romantic style has endured as a favourite to this day.
