An absolutely staggering 18ct gold ruby and diamond trilogy ring. Dating to the 1980s, this incredible piece features a classic boat-ring design, centred with an oval-cut ruby in a rich crimson, flanked by a large brilliant-cut diamond on either side. The ruby, weighing approx. 0.30ct, shows fabulous saturation and depth of colour, while the diamonds, together weighing approx. 0.35ct, are bright, well-matched and full of sparkle. The gemstones are set in a beautifully decorative swirl-pierced gallery that gives a Victorian revival feel. Crafted in thick, buttery yellow gold and weighing over 4 grams, this is a fabulously substantial, dazzling and eye-catching ring to cherish for years to come - a perfect choice for an engagement, anniversary, romantic gifting -- or a wonderfully indulgent treat for yourself!
