Turquoise Ring Antique Diamond Ring 18k Gold

About the Item

A gorgeous turquoise ring from the 1900s made of 18k gold, features diamonds. The ring of half-moon design was crafted by using scroll work. In the center of the half moon staged a 0.92 points diamond. The gem is set in the row of the oval cabochon turquoises. Nine tiny diamonds bezel set on the sides of turquoises. This antique ring is an amazing example of the meticulously hand-crafted piece with a feminine vibe. About antique rings The artistry of making antique rings reflects the era’s cultural influences. Most antique rings were created by skilled artisans who meticulously handcrafted each piece. This level of craftsmanship allowed for intricate designs that were often time-consuming to produce. This includes filigree work, hand-chasing, granulation (tiny metal beadwork), and hand-piercing to create delicate openwork patterns. The emphasis on hand-made production is a hallmark of the era’s jewels. Antique rings were typically made from both gold and silver. Because gold was expensive during the antique period, most diamonds were set in silver that was backed with gold. That protects the silver from tarnishing over time. Many Victorian-era rings feature intricate filigree work and delicate hand engraving. Setting styles, such as bezel and prong settings, are also different from what is used today. Romantic and sentimental motifs were widely applied to the rings’ look. They often carried symbolic meaning, with specific gemstones conveying messages of love, friendship, or mourning. Acrostic jewelry, where the first letter of each gemstone spelled out a message, was a common form of symbolic expression in antique rings. The natural aging process can contribute to their unique character and charm. Patina, which develops over time on metals, adds a sense of history and authenticity to antique pieces.
