Antique Victorian Ruby & Diamond Cluster Ring – c.1890 | 15K Gold & Platinum, AGL Certified

A true Victorian masterpiece.
An unheated natural ruby encircled by antique Old Mine diamonds — opulence, romance, and history in one extraordinary ring.

This exceptional Victorian cluster ring, handcrafted circa 1890, is a rare and breathtaking example of 19th-century fine jewelry at its finest.

At the heart of the ring sits a 2.10 carat natural ruby, glowing with a strong vivid medium-to-strong red hue, alive with flashes of cherry and flame. Certified by the American Gemological Laboratories (AGL), the ruby is confirmed natural, unheated, and untreated, originating from Thailand — a level of authenticity increasingly difficult to find.

Encircling the ruby is a radiant halo of nine antique Old Mine Cut diamonds, each individually hand-set in platinum, creating a dramatic starburst effect. The split shoulders and elevated profile add architectural elegance while maintaining balance and refinement.

Crafted in 15K yellow gold with platinum diamond settings, this ring embodies the romance, craftsmanship, and grandeur of the Victorian era. It is not simply jewelry — it is a preserved work of art.
