Victorian 18ct Gold Cat’s Eye Chrysoberyl & Diamond Three Stone Rub Over Set Ring

136Y
Written by Olly Gerrish

A smart 18ct gold ring that was made circa 1880-1900. It has been set with two old mine cut diamonds that are a good evenly matched colour. There is a beautiful Cat’s Eye Chrysoberyl in the centre. Cat’s eye chrysoberyl is an expensive stone and is a stone of good fortune. It is said to bring serenity and happiness, along with optimism and generosity, creativity and kindness. It is also a stone of protection against the evil eye. All the gem stones are set in rub over settings. A rub over setting places the diamond in a circle of metal, which is then folded all around it to catch the hips of the gem at its widest point. It creates a secure setting which is a neat look because the stones are not claw set.

A lovely ring that curves around the finger beautifully and carries wonderful meanings.
