ABOUT:
These skinny diamond bands are fun to mix and match and layer. Could also be worn alone as a minimalist statement.
This one has a nice height to it propping the five little diamonds up in prongs, so it's fun to layer with other diamond bands or gold ones in a stack. The diamonds aren't super big but wow are they chunky with high crowns.
I think this one was re-tipped as the prongs are super long so it is ready for 24/7 wear.
Found in the UK, this antique piece is stamped 18CT for 18k gold.
Please note the measurements as I have small fingers and it can be difficult to determine scale from pictures. Antique box is not included.
MEASUREMENTS:
It is a size 5 1/4. It weighs 2.15 grams.
The largest center diamond is about 3.8mm, the next two are 3mm-3.2mm and the end are 2.5mm. For a total estimated carat weight of about 2/3 carat (0.65ctw to .7ctw). Depths vary and I would never remove them from the antique setting for an exact carat weight, so this is an estimate.
The ring face is 4.4mm wide north to the south on the finger and it stands 5.2mm tall off the finger. The five diamonds span about 15mm across the finger.
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Typical antique diamonds, they all have inclusions that are eye visible to slightly eye visible. One of the end stones is a bit milky under magnification. The opposite end stone has a tiny chip to the corner, not really eye visible. These were hand cut in much more limited supply long before the Four C's was invented and much attention was paid to such things. The stones are not huge so it is still a pretty ring but when studying it you will note these inclusions. The diamonds have a lovely antique look with varying warm white to gray hues.
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 : )

Please feel free watch @mouseshouseantiques on Instagram for inventory drops, sneak peaks and previews! And check out my website www.MousesHouseAntiques.com as I can add more pics there so you can get extra looks : )
All items hand picked by me, one at a time from all over the world. All listings individually written by me, and not AI, after studying each piece to discuss its beauties and its ; ) eccentricities (which I am picky to point out).
Many of my listings include group shots – I find the comparisons between pieces help show scale, diamond hues, etc. All items in group shots are inventory, but refer to the website to see what items have sold out and to watch for new listings from the grouping to appear on the home page.
