18KT RARE REGENCY DIAMOND RING 1820/1840 ca -LOOK!

Here is a genuine early Victorian or Regency period ring dating 1820/1840 ca
 
 It has been hand created in solid 18 Kt
 Assay and maker punches inside the shank
 
 It bear more than 150 years of back history!

 The crown contains a composition of antique rose cut diamonds
 Nine diamonds in total with larger set in the centre
 Ranging in diameter from 2.30 mm. to 3.91 mm.
 All diamonds are of primitive rose cut as in use at early times SO do not expect them to be perfect!
 At the time there was very short supply of diamonds and what appears ugly today was in fact rare and precious at the time
 Diamonds were merely polished and almost left as found
 The ring boasts a large crown which sits rather flat on finger
 It has gorgeous shoulders and is beautifully made throughout in the criteria and taste of the time
 It is 100% original antique untouched conditions
 Of course it has some wear but can be still be worn for a long time ahead
