Edwardian Scalloped Cluster Ring
An unusual antique cluster ring that, at the time it was made, melded the old and the new. Meaning? The face of the ring, set with a cluster of diamonds around a central ruby, is crafted in platinum and finished with fine millegrain detailing. During the early 20th century, the use of platinum was very much in its infancy - jewellers having only recently been able to work at the high temperatures required to soften the metal. The rest of the ring, with its scalloped gallery and snake-like shoulders, is distinctly Victorian - that is to say, 19th century - in style. It's crafted in rich 18 carat gold, stamped 18ct inside the band, with platinum settings. Made in England around 1910, maybe a little earlier.

Condition
We offer detailed and accurate condition reports on each listing. These pieces are antique, vintage, or pre-loved, often over 100 years old so they're going to have lived a life. A healthy patina and the odd scuff/scrape are quite normal... it's part of their charm! Everything we present has been checked over by our jeweller and should be good for wear for many years to come (unless otherwise stated) but please remember to treat them with appropriate care and consideration for their age.
