Antique Victorian Diamond Navette Cluster Ring 1ct Total

An outstanding antique Victorian diamond navette cluster ring from the late 19th Century, encrusted with fifteen chunky old mine cut diamonds across the face, with an additional one on each shoulder. They have SI1 clarity – H colour and range from 0.03 to 0.22ct in the centre (approx. 1ct total).

During the 18th and 19th Century, old cut diamonds were considered the highest standard with skilfully hand-cut facets that were said to gently dance by candlelight. It may be considered less refined and flashy by modern standards, but their rugged aesthetic and distinctive fire are unlike any machine-cut stones made today and evoke the romance and skilled craftsmanship of a bygone era.

The diamonds are pave set in a large marquise gallery, fashioned in silver with an 18ct yellow gold back and band, with scrolling shoulders and pierced sides. It’s a stunning Victorian era cluster ring, boasting a magnificent array of natural diamonds that perform with dazzling beauty across the top of the finger.

We recommend you insure for £3,000. We can provide a written Valuation on completion of the sale.
