Antique French Ruby Diamond Gold Bypass Ring

Don’t be surprised if hailing a taxi seems a little easier, or if holding a stemmed glass feels a bit more luxurious. It’s the little things that get noticed when wearing something this glamorous. Oh, would you look at that, there’s a table open at The Ivy. Coincidence? I think not.

This antique ruby and diamond ring was handcrafted in 18 karat gold. It’s a French bypass or ‘toi et moi’, ring, made around 1900. It consists of three pink rubies and four rose cut diamonds. The round faceted rubies weigh a total of approximately .28 carats. The ring face measures 7.9 x 11.3 x 3.7 mm off the finger and the band width is 1.4 mm at the back. This piece bears a partial French mark and has been acid tested. It’s a size 9.25 and weighs 2.1 grams.

Bypass rings are a sentimental concept, the band never comes together in the front, representing individuality and partnership. It’s a symbol of love and fluidity.
