The gemstones are in a closed back setting and the gold has ornate scrolling and carving detail around the setting, ring shoulder and shank.
The ring is a UK size Q and a half / between a US size 8 - 8.5
The inside of the ring shank is stamped ‘9’ and ‘375’ for 9ct gold, along with hallmarks showing that it was made in Birmingham in 1880. There is a maker’s mark of ‘TW&Co’
The ring front has a height of 1cm and the ring weighs 1.7g
This antique ring is 144 years old and is in good condition for its age, showing light signs of age / general wear. The stones all seem secure in their settings; on close inspection it can be seen that two of the garnets are set on a slight angle. The seed pearls vary a little in shade, lustre and finish and one of them may be a historic replacement. Please see all photos for full detail.
