DATE: Victorian, c.1890

A striking Victorian navette cluster ring set with old European cut diamonds. It dates from the late 19th Century, circa 1890, and however retains a certain contemporary feel. Crafted in 18 karat gold with the diamonds set in silver to accentuate their colour. The term navette (often used interchangeably with Marquise) means "little ship" in French, in reference to the boat-like shape it describes.
