AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Sapphire ring with Ceylon sapphire and rose-cut diamonds – likely from France, Victorian era, late 19th century. 1870-1890.

Refined ring made in 18 kt gold and silver, embellished with a natural Ceylon-origin sapphire of oval cut, surrounded by a halo of natural rose-cut diamonds.

Features a natural, untreated Sri Lankan sapphire of 5.20 ct with Gemological Certification Cisgem attesting its origin and naturality. Natural sapphires are increasingly rare and precious in nature.
26 rose-cut diamonds totaling approximately 0.75 ct, quality estimated.
Weight: 5.28 g
Italian ring size: 11
French ring size: 51
Crown dimensions: 2 cm x 1.9 cm.

The jewel presents the typical European jewelry setting of the late nineteenth century, with the central stone mounted and surrounded by small rose-cut diamonds set in silver—a technique widely used in era jewelry to enhance the stones’ luminosity. The lower structure and the shank are made of 18 kt gold, in the traditional gold–silver combination typical of 19th-century jewelry.

The mounting is enriched by an elegant pierced work beneath the central stone and by finely shaped shoulders that confer balance and lightness to the design.

Will be shipped in a gift box with tracked and insured shipping.
A certificate of authenticity for the item will be issued, detailing the characteristics of the stones and of the gold.
Our shipping costs include full insurance coverage in case of loss or damage to the item and a premium express service, as the package is delivered within 24-48 hours unless there are operational delays.
