AUDREY

Audrey is a dainty ring with a lot of heart. A rich pink-red ruby sits in the middle, with a bright little diamond on each side, all set flush into the gold inside hand-engraved stars. She’s slim, smooth and gorgey, the kind of ring that never catches on a jumper and looks just as good on its own as stacked with a wedding band.

The deets:

• Era: late Victorian to Edwardian in style, circa 1890 to 1910 (estimated)
• Metal: 18 carat yellow gold, stamped 18C
• Stones: one central ruby with two small diamonds, star-set
• Style: gypsy (flush-set) ring with a tapered band
• Size: UK N½
• Weight: 2.87g
  

Condition: Very good. Gentle wear to the band, as you’d expect from a ring that’s been worn and loved for generations. All stones are secure, and the flush setting keeps them well protected.
