Edwardian Star-Set Diamond & GTD "Gypsy" Ring
Garnet topped doublets are a marvel of ingenuity... they're paste gemstones with a thin "slice" of garnet fused onto the crown, before the whole thing is then faceted. They've been making them since the 1850s, allowing for the vibrant colours possible with paste stones to have a much more durable crown with the bright vitreous lustre of garnet.

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.
