$587.00
SKU RIN-23-0109
This beautiful ring is a stunning treasure. This Victorian antique ring is set with all of the original gems and it is in remarkable condition given its age.
What is truly remarkable about this ring is that it is engraved on the underside with a date. On the back it is engraved: Sept 8th, 1879.
This date precedes the date in which Edison demonstrates the first lightbulb. Talk about a historic ring!
The ring is set with six (6) turquoise stones. The stones are a lovely Robin's Egg blue, but one of the stones has changed colour to a deep teal blue. Turquoise can naturally change colour. This can be caused by the light, or by a chemical reaction brought about by cosmetics, dust or the acidity of the skin.
The ring is also set with four (4) white pearls set in a buttercup setting. The pearls are original to the ring and have a lovely silvery luster and shine.
The band is a four (4) band ring, so it would be difficult to size this ring as each one of the bands would need to be sized individually.
Ring Size: 6.0 US
Item Weight: 4.14 g
The ring is made out of 18K Yellow Gold. It is not stamped but tested as gold.
