About the Item
Victorian Maltese Cross Ring with Rubies & Rose-Cut Diamonds in 18K Gold, Dated 1874
Elevate your collection with this rare and meaningful jewel from the Victorian era—a finely crafted antique ring featuring a Maltese cross set with rich red rubies and luminous rose-cut diamonds. Rendered in warm 18K gold and dating to 1874, this exquisite piece blends historical significance with enduring elegance.
At its center, the Maltese cross—a symbol of protection, honor, and heritage—is formed using alternating rubies and diamonds, creating a striking interplay of light and color. The ring’s face measures approximately 0.3 inches north to south, offering a subtle yet powerful presence on the hand.
What makes this ring especially unique is its intimate provenance: the inner band is engraved with the inscription “C.A. 1875,” a poignant detail that connects the jewel to a specific moment in history—perhaps a gift of love, loyalty, or remembrance.
This one-of-a-kind piece is in excellent condition, retaining all original components and its full Victorian charm. It is currently a size 6. Due to the presence of the original inscription, resizing is not recommended.
Materials & Testing
The ring features natural rubies and antique rose-cut diamonds set in solid 18K gold. The gold has been professionally tested via X-ray fluorescence (XRF) to confirm its purity. All stones appear original and securely set.
Resizing is available.
