Antique Victorian Gold Five-Stone Diamond Ring, Chester 1901
- Easy Returns
- Layaway Available
Five old-cut diamonds blaze across the finger, their light caught in deep golden settings that cradle each stone like tiny crowns. This classic five-stone style was a favorite for its symbolism to mark milestones, to celebrate love’s endurance, or to shine as one continuous band of brilliance. Worn through the Edwardian years, it would have sparkled under gaslight and sun alike, a quiet but radiant declaration of beauty.
Handcrafted in Chester in 1901, this ring is set with five diamonds totaling approximately 0.28 carats. The central diamond measures 3.5 x 3.5 x 2.1 mm, flanked by two at 2.3 mm, and two smaller side stones at 1.5 mm. The face of the ring measures 5.5 mm north to south, 17 mm across, and rises 3.5 mm off the finger. The band width is 2.2 mm, and the ring weighs 2.98 grams. It bears full English hallmarks including a crown, “18,” Chester town mark, and the date letter “A” for 1901. It is a size 5 US.
An heirloom of quiet elegance, this ring brings with it not only the craftsmanship of its time but also the sentiment woven into every diamond it carries.
