A delicate Georgian amethyst and seed pearl cluster ring dating to around 1830, crafted in warm rosy gold and set with richly coloured foiled amethysts in a floral arrangement.The ring is formed as a central oval amethyst cluster surrounded by further circular amethysts, divided by small seed pearls which add contrast and softness to the design. The shoulders retain elegant split detailing, a characteristic feature of late Georgian rings.The amethysts are closed-back and foiled; a traditional 19th century technique in which reflective foil was placed beneath the stones to intensify colour and luminosity in candlelight.

The stones remain secure and the floral arrangement displays beautifully on the hand.
