Out of stock
This lovely carved half hoop from about 1890 features a rich blue untreated centre sapphire flanked by two bright white old mine cut diamonds.
A further four tiny old cut diamonds sit between the three main stones.
Carved half hoops are so called because the gold scroll work is literallycarved into the mount with a graver.
They are usually quite substantial, and will stand up to careful everyday wear.
