A lovely antique ring, c.1850, set with approximately a quarter carat of chunky old mined cut diamonds in attractive star settings. The antique diamonds are lovely quality, bright and sparkly with excellent clarity grades and minimal wear.
To the reverse there is evidence of the ring being re-shanked at some point in history, likely to make it a significantly smaller ring size. This has been done well and securely, but there is a slight ‘wobble’ to the shank that gives the game away, although not noticeable when worn.

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.
