Victorian Emerald and Diamond Ring in 18K Gold, Circa 1850

There’s something undeniably regal about an emerald, its lush green hue forever tied to elegance and history. This mid-19th century ring evokes a timeless sense of beauty with its neoclassical flair and finely detailed craftsmanship. Imagine the life this piece has seen, perhaps gracing the hand of a Victorian aristocrat, its deep green emerald shimmering like a secret garden under candlelight. The softly engraved shoulders and sides create an air of romantic opulence, a perfect frame for the exquisite stones.

Set in 18 karat gold, this unmarked but carefully tested antique ring features a vibrant emerald-cut emerald measuring approximately 5 x 4 x 2.8 mm, with an estimated weight of 0.50 carats. Flanking this vivid centerpiece are two sparkling old-cut diamonds, weighing approximately 0.20 carats each. The face of the ring measures 7.8 mm north to south and 13 mm across, with a rise of 4.8 mm off the finger. The band gracefully narrows to 1.7 mm at the back. At a size 7.75 and weighing 4.06 grams, it is perfectly proportioned for wear.

This is not just a ring; it is a connection to a gilded past, ready to inspire a modern story. Whether as a statement of individuality or a treasured heirloom, this exquisite emerald and diamond ring speaks to the wearer’s unique style and love of enduring beauty.
