A gorgeous Victorian ring, made of silver and 18k gold, features enamel and diamond. The ring has striking design owing to its elliptic shape and the bright blue enamel in the center. The diamonds are rose cut, bezel set in silver. Three diamonds staged in a vertical line in the center of the head. This arrangement is quite unusual for the modern jewelry and common for the Victorian era. The diamonds surrounding the enamel part create an airy looking halo.

This antique ring was crafted with a great attention to details which resulted in creating a true jewelry masterpiece of its time.
