Victorian 18ct Gold, Five Stone Ruby & Diamond Carved Half Hoop Ring

552S
Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A fabulous 18ct gold five stone ruby ring that was made in Birmingham in 1874. The graduated rubies are a fantastic pigeon blood colour. They are accentuated by a small diamond above and below that gives the ring a good line. The shank is known as a “Carved half hoop” due to the ornate scroll work on the sides. It sits low on the finger and curves beautifully around it so it is an ideal ring to wear as a Ruby Anniversary ring or an engagement ring.
