Bright blue sapphires and lively old mine cut diamonds feature in this late Victorian carved half hoop ring in 18-carat yellow gold.

The sapphires are of that lovely Ceylon type of mid blue – so hard to find. The old mine cut diamonds in between them are white and bright.

All the stones are well matched – an important point, and often not the case for antique jewellery, as many pieces will have replacement stones that have been added over the years.

A charming detail is the placement of eight tiny rose cut diamonds along the setting edges, adding extra sparkle to this beauty.
