Description

DATE: Victorian, c.1880

A sweet Victorian ring, fully charged with romantic sentiment. The head is modelled as a double heart - each on set with a halo of diamonds around either a blue sapphire or a ruby. Double heart rings were usually given to a bride on her wedding day, to symbolise the union of two hearts. Different gemstones can be seen to represent different attributes.. in this case we have the diamonds for enduring love, a ruby for power, and the sapphire for romance. The band is modelled in rich 18 karat gold, featuring lovely scrolled detail at the shoulders.
