This is a wonderful, Antique 18ct Emerald and Diamond Ring, with a large, grass green emerald in a buttercup setting nestled between four lively rose cut diamonds (two on either side of the central emerald stone). Stunning engraving on the gallery and down the shoulders completes this pretty and unusual design.

This very striking ring weighs a healthy 2.44g and is currently a UK size L 1/2 which is a US size 6.
It is fully hallmarked for 18ct Gold, Chester and the year 1903, making it Edwardian.

This is such a fabulous antique style that would work equally well as a timeless engagement ring as it would a statement ring to be worn on that special occasion.

Emeralds have long been known as the symbol of truth and love, so this design has traditionally worked very well as an engagement ring. Indeed, in ancient times, the emerald was considered to be the stone of love, its green color representing vitality and new beginnings. For this reason, it is often looked at as the right gemstone to represent happy new beginnings, love and an eternal relationship.
