Provenance Original to c.1915, this late Edwardian three-stone engagement ring is set with a stunning natural ruby with a striking raspberry hue. Claw-set with double prong detail, in an open-back setting. Flanked by two round transitional-cut diamonds, the last of the hand facetted stones before the laser-cut modern round brilliant-cut was developed. The diamonds have smaller proportions than the central ruby which creates a very classy and flattering spread of stones across the finger. The gallery is intricately pierced with a refined linear framework. The shoulders are lightly open, featuring cheneir details, subtly tapering to flow to a solid 18ct yellow gold band.
