A striking Victorian-era wide band ring, modeled in 18k rosy yellow gold, whose face is a pair of sailor’s reef knots, laid one atop the other. These lovely, sinuous knots are each “tied” using pairs of gold wires, and these wires come together in a stack of four to form the ring shank. They are decoratively bound, with vertical straps, at the ring’s shoulders. Knot motifs from this era symbolized loyalty, fidelity, and the strength of a bond. This ring is fully hallmarked for Sheffield, and the year 1855.

Victorian Era Love Knot Wide Band Ring in 18k Gold

An elegant Art Deco era dinner ring, modeled in platinum, whose primary gemstone is a natural, oval, 2+ carat sapphire. This vibrant, faceted, medium-blue gem is bezel set into the ring’s square face, where it is accented by a bevy of small, glittering, old cut diamonds. The ring's highly-dimensional, squarish ring head is decorated (entirely) with delicate, hand-pierced filigree

Art Deco Era Blue Sapphire & Diamond Filigree Dinner Ring in Platinum

A charming, Art Deco era, five-stone engagement ring, modeled in platinum and set with approx .30 carats of lovely, old cut diamonds. This geometrically-inclined ring calls to mind a small, glittering temple (temple of your love perhaps!). The central transitional cut diamond weighs approx .10 carats

Art Deco Era Five Diamond Temple Engagement Ring in Platinum

A magical, Art Deco era ring, modeled in 18k yellow gold and set with a brilliant blue, Egyptian, faience scarab bead. This talisman of renewal and rebirth is held in an ornately scalloped bezel. The foot of this festoon bezel is embellished with twisted gold wire, and the ring’s shoulders are decorated with a shapely, very minimal, lotus motif.

1970s Organic Modernist OMC Diamond and Pearl Nest Ring in 14k Gold

Bold Vintage Art Moderne 8.25c Asscher Cut Aquamarine Ring in 18k Gold

Soothing and glowing, a misty, cucumber-green tourmaline cabochon sits, nested, inside a thick-walled, organic bezel, which tapers seamlessly into its ring's integral shank. This bubbly, triangular, tourmaline gem has been cleverly cut, leaving the natural, crystalline texture of its terminus intact on the bottom side— the gem's smooth high dome magnifies this rough crystal texture to magical effect!

Misty Green Tourmaline Organic Modern Cladonia Ring in 18k Gold

Soulful and sparkling, an antique, .70 carat old mine cut diamond sits, nested, inside a thick-walled, organic bezel, which tapers seamlessly into its ring's integral shank. This ring is modern and organic— its graceful shape is reminiscent of the beautiful pixie cup lichens (Cladonia asahinae). Metal is 18k yellow gold; it is delicately brushed. Old mine cut diamonds are much loved by collectors for their unique, hand-cut character, their small, high, tables, open culets, and off-round shape.

Old Mine Cut Diamond Organic Modern Cladonia Ring in 18k Gold

An antique five stone ring, modeled in platinum and set with .75 carats of chunky old cut diamonds. The ring’s gallery is decorated with an open-work, lily of the valley/fleur-de-lys motif, and each of its soulful white diamonds has a large open culet. The ring's cathedral shoulder is decoratively notched. Its slender, half-round shank tapers subtly toward the base. This is very flattering in wear and it would make a lovely wedding or anniversary band.

Art Deco Era Five Stone Diamond Lily of The Valley Ring in Platinum

A soulful, Victorian-era, three stone gypsy ring, modeled in 18k yellow gold, whose precise, six-pointed, star-shaped seats hold a trio of gemstones⁠— a chunky, little old mine cut diamond, and a pair of old cut rubies. The ring's shoulders are decorated with an ornate, deeply-engraved arrow motif (to represent that cupid's arrow that struck you and your beloved). All of the ring's engraved elements are expertly hand-executed. This darling is hallmarked for Birmingham and the year 1902.

Victorian Era OMC Diamond & Ruby Gypsy Band in 18k Gold

An unusual, Victorian-era, locket ring, with a sliding function, whose rectangular face is set with an outstanding plume agate cabochon. This translucent agate has highly-figural plume inclusions that read like a tender pair of tree or mushroom friends, leaning into one another on the floor of a tiny forest. The ring’s locket function is very discreet and is not noticeable when the face is closed. Its ornate, four-tine shoulders are deeply-engraved; its flat shank is weighty and broad.

Victorian Era Plume Agate Locket Ring in 10k Gold

A soulful, Georgian-era, flower-form ring, modeled in 18k yellow gold with a silver top. This ring’s eight, oval, collet-set, old mine cut diamonds are arranged around its vibrant, untreated, central ruby. The shoulders of the ring are decorated with voluptuous, swirling repoussé work, that is typical of the period. This ring has a closed back, and its weighty, half-round shank tapers toward the base.
