A refined and powerful example of Edwardian craftsmanship, this authentic antique cluster ring centers on a striking natural sapphire, framed by a halo of luminous old-cut diamonds.
The sapphire displays a deep, inky blue with flashes of lighter royal tones under movement, a color profile highly sought after in early 20th-century stones. Based on visual characteristics, cutting style, and period context, the sapphire is most likely unheated, consistent with sapphires of this era. The stone shows light surface wear consistent with age, a natural and expected characteristic of genuine antique gemstones that have been worn and loved for over a century.
Surrounding the sapphire is a beautifully proportioned halo of antique old-cut diamonds, each individually hand-set. The setting features exceptional Edwardian detailing, including delicate hand-applied milgrain, fine piercing, and crisp metalwork throughout, hallmarks of high-quality craftsmanship from the period.
