We have a serious soft spot for cruciform pieces here at the SHJB, and this antique ring was really calling our name. Whether you see the cruciform as a religious symbol or a compass guiding you on your path there is no doubt this is a special piece.
The cross is made up of five antique diamonds, one larger centre stone and four 0.10ct diamonds surrounding it. When viewed with a loupe you can see that the small diamonds in particular are of a lower clarity grade with one having a very small nick to the gridle, but this does nothing to their sparkle, which is insane when they catch the light.
The ring is fully hallmarked for 1908 and is in excellent overall condition for its age.

We offer a ring re-sizing service by our antique specialist for a small fee, starting at £40.
Most of our rings can be resized, but if they can’t we will stipulate this in the description.
As a rule we will only alter a ring by three UK sizes. If you would like to size a ring more than three UK sizes (either up or down) please contact us on a case by case basis and we will try and accommodate you as best as possible.
We do not offer refunds on altered pieces, so please make sure you love your new piece before you purchase.
Sizing takes approximately 1-2 weeks.Please add the size you require as a note at checkout.
