DATE: Victorian, 1872

Gorgeous mid Victorian sapphire three-stone scroll ring with English hallmarks dating it to the year 1872. The sapphires display an intense cornflower blue colour - likely Ceylon origin - with double diamond accents in between each stone. Crafted in 18 karat gold with intricate engraved scrolled detailing to the gallery and shoulders. An excellent example of the style, daintier than the more common 5-stone pieces.
