Victorian Gold Ruby & Diamond Halo Engagement Ring

This exquisite antique ruby ring is a breathtaking addition to any jewelry collection. The ruby, just under 1 carat in size, is remarkably clear and brilliant for a natural stone. It features a slight hint of violet, giving it a maroon undertone that enhances its rich red hue—truly a lovely and captivating color.

The ruby is set in a Victorian-style oval halo ring crafted from European rose-yellow gold. Surrounding the oval ruby is a halo of hand-cut "old mine-cut" diamonds from the same era. This ring has been fully restored and is now ready for another generation to enjoy, whether as a July birthstone ring, a right-hand ring, or an engagement ring. 

Details: Antique 14k rose-yellow gold ring featuring an 0.82 carat oval ruby (natural, heat-treated, likely of Thai origin) and 0.48 carats total weight of natural antique diamond accents (old mine-cut), circa 1910.
