An exceptional vintage ring modelled in 9ct white gold and fully hallmarked for 1992. Weighing just shy of 11.5g this fine piece has a luxurious feel on the hand with no expense spared to set the mesmerising centre stone: a natural star sapphire of approximately 7ct.
The pale blue cabochon shows typical sapphire inclusions, with a silky appearance and yellow zoning. To the reverse the sapphire has a large yellowish inclusion and a divot that goes into the back of the stone, this is part of the un-fashioned sapphire crystal and shows us how the rough would have been before it was expertly polished to form the star stone.
Either side of the sapphire are two small eight cut diamonds, framed by square shaped settings in a simple geometric design that stands out against the textured metal that surrounds them. The result is exceptional and we couldn’t be more obsessed.

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.
