Victorian Topaz and Diamond Ring

A superb antique topaz and diamond cluster ring dating from the late 19th century, circa 1890. The 2.2ct faceted light yellow topaz sits majestically in a gold rubover mount. It is surrounded vertically by old cut diamonds, each 0.25cts in weight, claw-set in platinum. Two smaller rose cut diamonds fill the gaps on each side. All the stones are in open-backed settings which explains why they all still they glisten so marvellously as they can be easily cleaned unlike the typical closed-back and foiled settings of the Georgian and Victorian periods which are prone to foil-darkening and dirt building up behind the stone. 

The ring is unmarked but tests as 21K yellow gold. The bezel is attached to a smooth D-shaped tapering band with pinched shoulders. The gorgeous ring sits flat on the finger to allow for frequent wear and it remains in good overall condition despite its significant age with all the stones are securely set. Upon loupe magnification, there are some light abrasions to the facet junctions of the topaz, commensurate with age. 

UK ring size M 1/2, US size 6.5

The ring weighs 4.5 grams, the head measures 20mm x 8mm on its longest axes. 

This gorgeous and unusual late Victorian era ring would be a great addition to any collection, but would also make an excellent antique engagement ring!

维多利亚时期是珠宝世界经历巨大变革与创新的时代。这一时期从 1837 年延续至 1901 年，风格百花齐放，从浪漫感性到哥特与怪诞，不一而足。1861 年阿尔伯特亲王去世后，在纪念珠宝中使用煤玉、缟玛瑙和珊瑚蔚然成风。1867 年南非钻石矿的发现，使钻石在珠宝中的使用日益增多，枕形、玫瑰切工和老矿切工等更为精细的宝石切工也随之流行。

维多利亚时期珠宝还以其复杂的象征意义而著称，例如以蛇形图案代表永恒的爱，或以花卉传达隐秘的心意。这一时期的珠宝采用最上乘的材料，由技艺高超的匠人打造，凭借其独特魅力与精良品质，成为最令人向往的古董珠宝之一。
