Antique Gypsy Ring: Sapphires and Diamonds in Carved Stars, 18ct Yellow Gold (1910)

Antique Edwardian Sapphire & Diamond Gypsy Ring, 18ct Yellow-Gold, Size 7 1/4

Yes, the sapphires are really that blue. Any lover of old cut diamonds will appreciate this pretty, antique five stone sapphire and diamond ring. From England, the ring is fully hallmarked and hand-crafted in 18ct yellow gold. It may have been worn as a wedding band or in a stack with other rings. It's perfect for the woman who loves old cut diamonds and stars.

The primary stone is an oval cut sapphire, flanked by alternating old cut diamonds and sapphires. The three center stones are outlined by a star-shaped carved design.

These rings are also known as "Gypsy" or "Gypsy Set" for the style of the stone setting: deep enough to accommodate gems that are set into the ring and flush set with the surface. Technically speaking, the stones have tiny prongs and are really prong set, but they are often referred to as a gypsy ring.

Why this Gypsy Ring is Special:
