A gorgeous antique ruby and pearl band ring, set in buttery 18 carat gold and dating to the late Victorian era.

This ring takes on a curved form, the wide gold band boasting a smooth and solid feel, allowing the wonderful sequence of alternating ruby and pearls adorning the face of the ring to stand out. Each stone is set in a lozenge or diamond shaped setting, the rubies a gorgeous pop of pink in between the lustrous seed pearls. Natural antique patina throughout the settings accentuating the gorgeous details and shadows to the piece.

The combination of rubies and pearls in Victorian jewellery often symbolised passion and purity, making the ring not only visually refined and distinctive, but also meaningful. This piece sits flush on the finger, allowing for comfort and ease of wear, whilst not sacrificing beauty or presence.
