History and anecdotes

This ring is a magnificent example of the Victorian era, probably dating back to the mid or late 1800s. The diamonds are set in gold with silver top setting, a common technique of the time: silver was used to enhance the brilliance of diamonds, while the gold base guaranteed solidity and luxury, often enriched by hand-engraved or repoussé details.

With its bold central emerald and striking diamond outline, this ring most likely belongs to the so-called “Grand Period”, a time when large stones and richly adorned frames were very much in vogue, reflecting the opulence and taste of the era.

The emerald was a symbol of rebirth, love and protection-it was believed to give insight and foresight. Diamonds, on the other hand, represented eternity and strength, making this style particularly popular for engagement rings and jewellery intended for special occasions.
