DATE: Victorian, c.1900

An unusual antique ring dating from the late Victorian period, circa 1900. A central pyrope garnet is set within a thick oval halo, somewhat reminiscent of a lifesaver, almost appearing to float. The stone displays excellent colour, a vibrant blood-red, wonderfully accentuated by the rose gold of the ring.
