This amazing Antique yellow/white gold ring has deep blue sapphires with scallops of old mine cut diamonds surrounding them. This ring definitely has a lot of age to it and was made in the 1800s sometime. It may be from the Early Victorian period with a Georgian era influence. There are three round deep blue sapphires, which have been gemologist verified. Two of them measure approx. 2.5mm and the largest measures approx. There are 16 prong-set diamonds in the white gold surrounding the sapphires. Fourteen are original old mine cut diamonds; two were missing and were replaced with old European cut diamonds. When wearing the ring they do no seem to stand out as different, but under a loupe you can tell the difference. Three recessed teardrop shapes flow down the shoulders of the ring into a solid sturdy shank. It measures a size 7 and could most likely be sized to an extentby an experienced jeweler, if desired. The gold on the face of the ring and bezels tested as 6-8k gold, while the shank tested as 16k gold. There is a partial stamp on the shank that looks like it once said, “18k” or “10k”.
