.94 Victorian Antique Old Mine Diamond Five Ring 18k

Five diamonds sit across the top of this Victorian era ring, held in 18 karat yellow gold with an open filigree gallery beneath them. The center stone is a .40 carat old mine cut diamond, graded H color and VS2 clarity, meaning it reads close to colorless and carries only minor inclusions you won't easily spot without a loupe. Old mine cut diamonds have a deep, slightly squared shape with a small table, so instead of sharp white flashes, you get warmer, softer glints of light. Two more old mine cut diamonds flank the center stone, each measuring 3.0mm and weighing .11 carats, for .22 carats combined. Single cut diamonds fill the outer two positions, bringing the ring's total diamond weight to .94 carats. The pierced filigree underneath lets light move through the gallery, so the stones catch light from several angles as the hand moves.
