Heart with diamond ring
Vintage diamond set 9ct gold heart ring
Diamonds are forever, and so is a heart! This adorable ring is made in yellow gold and has a pretty diamond set in a heart which has nice filigree detail round its edge. It has lightly marked lines that go down it for a slight textured effect. The hallmarks tell us the ring was made in London in the 1970s by the manufacturing jewellers FM. The heart including the filigree measures approximately 9.2 x 9.3mm. The band tapers to 1.3mm. This is a fun and pretty ring for daily wear.

Green paste half hoop ring
Victorian foiled green paste 15ct gold closed back half hoop ring
It’s a pleasure to offer for sale this super charming - and very collectable - antique stacking band. It presents a uniform row of five foil back hard glass stones of pleasing vivid green colour. Each measures around 3mm. They are brilliant cut and simulate real emeralds very well – but without the hefty price tag! Green paste of the 19th century is in itself relatively hard to find and rather sought after. (See p.97 of Georgian Jewellery, Dawes and Collings, for a wonderful look at Georgian era green paste jewellery.) The middle three stones are quite light and bright in colour, while each outer stone is a deeper moss green. This gives a nice variation and depth as we look upon the ring. The stones are all set closed back in beautiful buttery gold, and joined to a simple bifurcated band which tapers from 3.8mm at the shoulder to 2.85 at the underside. There is no date mark, merely a clear 15ct stamp, but as this composition of gold was only used from 1854 to 1932, at a guess we can date this ring from around the 1850s-60s from its style. We don't recommened getting the ring wet as it would cause the foils to deteriorate .

Garnet and seed pearl conversion ring
Georgian flat cut garnet and seed pearl lace pin conversion ring
This special, one of a kind piece has been made from the sweetest original 15ct gold lace pin of circa 1800. It is set with three foiled, flat cut garnets all tipped with tiny natural seed pearls in a fascinating historical style. Charmingly the seed pearls vary in colour, being more ivory in tone to one end and more of a warm, light champagne hue to the other. One has a very sweet little 'beauty mark' to its centre - this, we believe, occurred naturally in the pearl and has been set in the piece for interest. The garnets do show a bit of age-related wear in their foils, but this is just a delightful piece all round. The former brooch has been beautifully smoothed to the reverse and precision set to an unmarked 9ct gold band of 2.7mm width. The top of the ring measures around 18.7 x 11.9mm, and sits with a flat, low profile on the hand.

Care advice: do not submerge ring in water as this will degrade the foils
