Exceptionally rare and rich with early craftsmanship, this antique emerald and diamond ring dates to the early Victorian era (circa 1800–1850)—a time when jewelers used silver to achieve a white metal effect long before the invention of white gold. Hand-fabricated rather than cast, this ring reflects the artistry and individuality characteristic of early fine jewelry.
The ring features a warm 14K yellow gold body with silver face, allowing the diamonds to appear brighter against the white surface. At its center sits a vibrant natural emerald measuring approximately 4.3mm, flanked by two additional emeralds measuring 2.7mm and 2.5mm. Four antique diamond chunks are set throughout the ornate openwork design, adding subtle sparkle and authentic period character. This piece is a true collector’s jewel with unmistakable age and presence.
