A Demantoid Garnet and Diamond Five Stone Ring, circa 1900, three oval cut garnets alternate with two old cut diamonds, with pairs of tiny diamonds between each stone, in a yellow scroll mount on a plain polished shank, total estimated diamond weight 0.70 carat approximately, finger size N1/2

NB some of the diamond accents are missing

Sold for £850
Estimated at £400 - £600


 

. The ring is in good condition overall. Three of the eight tiny diamond accents are missing. One claw is missing completely and others are worn. The garnets are scuffed. One has a chip. One of the diamonds is also chipped (beyond age commensurate nibbling). The ring bears no hallmark, nor stamp, but in our opinion it would test as gold. The approximate qualities of the diamonds are; colour H/I/J, clarity SI2/I1/I2. Gross weight 3.0 grams.CR made 6th August 2019
