ABOUT:
Classic old mine cut diamond three stone band. Sweet and sparkly worn alone, and layers well with other bands. This Victorian era piece is crafted in 18k gold with platinum prongs ready for daily wear. This is the customary fabrication for the period but we love to find the prongs still so stable on these original antiques.
This one has a bit of height to it with the diamonds propped up in the pronged setting. Versatile and timeless crowd pleaser totaling around 0.9 carat total weight in diamonds. Ready for 24/7 wear, with UK hallmarks for 18k gold, the stamps are quite worn.
Please note the measurements as I have small fingers and the pictures can make it difficult to see scale. Antique box is not included.
SIZE & MEASUREMENTS:
Size 7 1/4, a little over.
The diamonds are each 4 to 4.4mm, the center being just slightly larger. I would not remove the stones for an accurate measurement but estimates to about 0.85 carat total weight in diamonds.
The piece weighs 1.95 grams. It stands 4.8mm off the finger. Ring face 12.4mm east west measuring the diamond settings.
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Typical antique diamonds with some natural inclusions. They all have some frosty spots and two of the stones have a smattering of pin point carbon - not large and inky but more like a spray in some areas, The center stone also has a crystal formation within that does not affect the stability of the stone but can catch the light. It is priced with these things in mind. There are three worn prongs but each stone is surrounded by 6 very sturdy prongs so it is ready for daily wear for another 100 years.
Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned and in estate condition. They will have patina, surface wear, a few small nicks. These pieces may also have evidence of a sizing, some build up around the stones and / or inclusions seen under magnification, typical for antique pieces. I have mentioned any noticeable issues above and they are all still wearable and eager to be loved and accepted for many years to come, (the preservation of antique jewelry, even those with signs of their age and history, is important to me. : )
But - Please note due to age, this piece is not in mint condition. Pictures also serve as part of the description and condition report so please utilize the zoom feature which will magnify any wear significantly more than what is visible to the eye while wearing : )
