He was walking through the shops, searching for something that looked like her. In a small storefront, at garden level, he spotted a stone like no other he’d seen. A hidden gem, a needle in a haystack, that four-leaf clover in a field of daisies. It looked like a blanket of snow over a mountain, each snowflake with its own colorful fire burning, lighting up beneath the sun. It looked like a sunset in Malibu, over the ocean in the West, with rainbow skies and salty air. It looked like her, beautiful at every angle, timeless and everything he was searching for.

She was at her table, with her coffee, reading a book. One hand turned the page while the other subconsciously twirled her hair.

Vintage Emerald Diamond Double Halo Ring 18k Gold
$ 9,800.00
I have funny dreams sometimes. Once I dreamed I was in the V&A (the Victoria and Albert Museum in London) at night. No one was there and I wandered the halls and galleries in my pajamas, at my leisure. When I came to the jewelry hall, poof, like Cinderella, I found myself in a flowing ball gown, and all the cases that held the jewels were open, I could take and wear whatever I liked. Is it any wonder that I went directly to the Seringapatam Jewels? The ornate parure of emeralds and diamonds is set with the most gorgeous emeralds. The stones were given as a reward to Major-General George Harris following a Victory at the Battle of Seringapatam in India in 1799. Dressed to the nines, and for some reason, shoeless, I flitted through the rest of the museum, dancing with statues and marveling at Monet’s.
This fantastic ring would have fit in perfectly in my dream. Set with a gorgeous (trust me, the photos don’t do it justice, emerald is one of the most difficult stones to photograph!) oval faceted emerald, which is surrounded by two halos of sparkling brilliant cut diamonds. The emerald weighs approximately 1.41 carats and the 36 diamonds add up to about .84 carats. The face of the ring measures 18 mm north to south and 15.3 mm across, it sits 6.2 mm off the finger and narrows to 2.9 mm at the back of the band. This ring is marked with the French Owl mark and has been carefully acid tested as 18 karat gold. The ring is a size 7 and weighs 5.8 grams. Hand crafted in about 1950.

Antique Trefoil 3 Diamond Ring 18k Gold
$ 1,350.00
When I was in design school, one of the things we were taught was that the human eye likes odd numbers of objects, three oranges, not four, three lobed leaves, three stone rings. Somehow we are just hardwired to look more fondly upon uneven things!

The ring weighs 2.0 grams.

Antique Rose Cut Diamond Ring Silver on Gold
$ 1,980.00
I’ve always heard that diamonds were the hardest thing on earth. So, when I found out that a diamond is 58 times harder than anything else on the planet, I swooned. This gem’s atomic octahedral arrangement attends to the sturdiness and durability of the stone, as well as the fact that it’s comprised of one element – carbon. The word, “diamond” originates from the Greek word, “adamas”, meaning “unbreakable”. The Greeks sure knew what they were talking about!
This gorgeous glittering antique diamond ring was handcrafted with an array of rose cut diamonds set in silver over 14 karat gold. It is unmarked and I’m not entirely certain as to the origin, but if I was to hazard a guess I’d say that it’s Dutch and certainly dates to about 1870 or so.

Antique Heart Signet Ring 18k Gold Hallmarked 1918

Antique Victorian Emerald Diamond Ring
$ 1,800.00
Cleopatra, The Queen of Egypt, adored emeralds. She also spoke a dozen languages, led a fleet in a naval battle, conquered her own brother for the throne, was highly educated, and used emeralds in her royal adornments. She is regarded as one of the most beautiful people to have ever exist. Even Plutarch regarded her character with the phrase, “irresistible charm”. Who could blame him? She started a drinking society with Mark Antony and called it, “Inimitable Livers”. Rumor has it, the club had nightly feasts and wine-binges, and they wandered Alexandria’s streets in disguise to play tricks on residents. Her love affair with emeralds encouraged the naming of, a now ancient, Egyptian emerald deposit commonly known as, ‘Cleopatra’s Mine’.
This antique Victorian diamond and emerald gold ring was handcrafted around 1890 in England. It’s a regal piece with elegant symmetry. A square emerald sits in the center of four diamonds, one on each side, with a graduated shank. The emerald is closed backed, and measures 4 x 4.5 mm across the top, each of the rose cut diamonds measure approximately 2 mm in diameter. This ring is a size 5.75 and weighs 4.2 grams. The ring face measures 10.4 mm north to south, 12 mm across and sits 3.6 mm off the finger, it tapers to 2.4 mm wide at the back of the band. There are no marks and it has been acid tested.
I like to assume that emeralds helped make Cleopatra as irresistible as she was; and if it worked for her, maybe it will work for us?

Antique Red Coral Navette Ring in 18k Gold, Dutch
$ 680.00
The Victorians had a special love for coral jewelry. Since Roman times, coral has been believed to possess the power to ward off evil and danger. In 1845 the Prince of Two Sicilies gave his bride, the Duchess d'Aumale, a fabulously memorable parure of coral jewelry. Thus began a fashion trend that lasted through the turn of the century and beyond.

Antique Peridot Solitaire Ring in 18k Gold

Antique 18k Gold Diamond Buckle Ring Wedding Band
$ 1,150.00
I’ve always had a soft spot for buckle rings, especially when winking gypsy-set diamonds are involved. The buckle was a common motif in Victorian jewelry as it symbolized eternity. It was popularized by Queen Victoria, as so much fashion of the time was, and the design carried over into the Edwardian Era. When buckle-themed jewelry was given to another, it represented the romantic ideals of unending love and strength. The idea of one end being threaded into the other, creating a never-ending circle, was a powerful justification of its meaning. Doesn’t that just send chills up your spine and bring goosebumps to your arms?
This antique gold buckle ring was handcrafted in England around 1890. It features two old European cut diamonds, weighing an approximate total of .17 carats. The ring face measures 7.5 mm in height and 1.2 mm in depth. This ring bears the gold purity mark, “18” and the maker’s mark, “G.S”. It weighs 7.1 grams and is a size 8.25.
The buckle motif dates to the sixteenth century when it was often called a ‘garter’. The buckle signifies the unbreakable strength of loyal virtue and memory forever. Sometimes, it’s seen as a motif on memorial jewelry.

Antique Edwardian Diamond Ruby Ring Gold Platinum
$ 1,250.00
In terms of aesthetic, the Edwardian Era stretches from 1895 to about 1915. However, King Edward VII, Queen Victoria’s eldest son and the person whom this period is named after, only ruled from 1901-1910. This was the final jewelry period that was named after a British monarch. In France this period of time was referred to as ‘La Belle Époque’ translating to ‘the beautiful era’, named after the luxurious lifestyles of the King and his Queen consort, Alexandra of Denmark. They established an international high society whose dress code required fine jewelry and lots of it. Although the couple influenced the Edwardian era’s visuals, artists and design houses did as well. During the Edwardian era, delicate design and feminine characteristics reigned. It was inspired by art from the 17th and 18th centuries. It was a time in which platinum was beginning to be used as jewelry making techniques improved. It was a time in which people cared a lot about which jewels were used in their pieces, and diamonds soared in popularity.

It was just like last May, when he came home from work and found her on a sugar high from too much lemonade on the back porch. She was on the phone with her mama, happy and chatting and turning red from laughter. In that moment, he saw her soulful hazel eyes and her messy blonde hair. He watched how her eyebrows crinkled when she giggled and how she crossed her legs like a pretzel on that white wicker chair. He couldn’t stop himself from pulling the ring box out of his jacket and bending down on one knee. He watched her as she stopped mid-sentence, how she whispered, “Oh my goodness mama”, and how she squealed yes and jumped up and in to his arms.

Antique Edwardian 3 Stone Opal and Diamond Ring in 18k Gold
$ 3,490.00
I’m always on the lookout for marvelous opal rings, and I often come across 3 and 5 stone varieties in the very typical English Victorian fashion, but I have to admit that when I saw this particular ring my jaw just about hit the floor. Once I had lifted said jaw and tucked it back neatly into place, I had no choice but to slip this large and luscious beauty onto my finger and bring it home with me.

The center stone is an approximately 1.7 carat round cabochon gem and the two side opals are cabochon egg shapes that add up to another 1.2 carats in bright opal gems. Interspersed between the opals are 5-7 point old European cut diamonds for added sparkle and flash, these add up to about .35 carats total weight. This ring is a size 9 and while it could be re-sized a little bit, it’s scale dictates that it be worn on a finger of about this size. The ring measures 9.8 mm from north to south and 26.3 mm from east to west and sits 6.4 mm off the finger, it narrows to 1.7 mm at the back of the band.

Antique Edwardian Diamond Double Snake Ring, Size 9
$ 1,550.00
Like it or not, our human history and mythology is highly connected to the imagery and iconography of the serpent. Cleopatra wore golden snakes, Eve was notoriously taken in by one, the Buddhists say that Mucalinda, king of the snakes, guarded the Buddha while he sat in meditation, and the ancient Egyptians worshiped the snake goddess, Wajet, who protected the pharaohs, while simultaneously fearing her son, Nehebkau, the two-headed serpent who guarded the entrance to the underworld. The snake biting its own tail has been used through the ages to represent the cyclic and infinite nature of all of life, and the motif is thought to have been inspired by the stars of the Milky Way. Two snakes intertwined have long embodied the perfection and eternity of love.
This fantastic snake ring had me at hello. Round and round and four times round, these two 18 karat gold snakes chase in endless circles. The head of each snake is set with a bright and lively Old European Cut diamond weighing approximately .15 carat. The ring is fully hallmarked on the inside of the band with the crown mark for having been made in England, the Castle for the town of Chester, and an N representing the year 1913; it also has a maker's mark of ‘F.B’. It is a size 9 and would be slightly more complicated to size than an ordinary ring, but clearly it's been done once and could be done again. I wouldn't recommend changing it by more than a couple of sizes up or down, please inquire if you're curious and I'll pass the question along to my jeweler. This ring measures 15.6 mm north to south at the widest point and narrows down to 10 mm wide at the back of the band, it weighs 8.5 grams.
There is something very powerful about a man in a gold ring. Throw in a couple of snakes and that power speaks to yummy. (This ring would be equally beautiful and powerful on a woman, don’t get me wrong).

Antique 15k Victorian Diamond and Pearl Ring, Hallmarked Birmingham c. 1900
$ 880.00
This lovely Victorian six stone pearl and rose-cut diamond ring was hand crafted in what was undoubtably the jewelry center of England, if not all of Europe: Birmingham. Known throughout the world as the 'City of a Thousand Trades', Birmingham's history dates back half a million years, as signs of human settlement date back to the Stone Age. But Birmingham's true growth and prosperity are owed to its metalworking industries of all kinds. Birmingham's prominence as a city bloomed under Queen Victoria, with the introduction of the railway, it became linked to Manchester and Liverpool and soon London. It was known for its small workshops and high level of skill and craftsmanship, and jewelry flowed out of Victorian Birmingham to the rest of the world. A world which, at that time, was dominated by the full power of the British empire, the largest empire in history.
This ring was made in Birmingham in the year 1900, at the height of Britain's glory. The stones are set into an 15 karat yellow gold mounting. The largest pearl is 3.3 mm across, graduating to the smallest which is 2.8 mm across. There are 4 diamonds between the pearls to give added sparkle. It has a full set of hallmarks as well as the maker's mark is 'TBR'.
The ring is currently a size 7.5, but could be resized by an experienced jeweler, it weighs 3.3 grams.
