This stunning 18k yellow gold ring is set around the shank with nine old mine-cut diamonds in open settings. The shank is further decorated with black enamel, giving a bold colour contrast between the enamel and diamonds.
The diamonds have an estimated combined carat weight of 0.67 carats (circa 0.07 carats each), a nice bright colour (circa H-I). As is often the case with antique diamonds, most display inclusions (ranging from SI1 to pique).
