Victorian White Paste 5-Stone Ring band rings The quality is fantastic

The quality is fantastic

The head is formed as a padlock

some light wear with age and use

but with the added bonus of also being made of 18 karat gold and set with natural blue sapphires

and there's a striker on the bottom (safety matches weren't a thing back then)

Victorian White Paste 5-Stone Ring band rings The quality is fantasticDATE: Victorian, c. 1890 (stones c. 1820) An incredible antique five stone ring set with chunky old cut white paste gemstones. The mount features lightly scalloped claw settings, crafted in 18 karat gold. As has been traditional since time immemorial, the stones pre date the mount (which was made circa 1890), likely having been salvaged from an older piece of jewellery and re purposed into something more contemporary stylish.
