The Story

A mesmerizing relic of 19th-century opulence, this Imperial Russian antique ring (circa 1860) is a true collector's masterpiece. At its heart lies a magnificent 3.07-carat Old Mine Cut diamond, boasting an exceptional VS1 clarity and a remarkably warm, romantic W-X color grade that radiates a soft, candlelight glow. The hand-faceted, pillowy stone is nestled within a classic scalloped collet setting that seamlessly flows into a substantial 14k yellow gold band. The shoulders of the shank are intricately adorned with striking black enamel scrollwork, delivering the high-contrast drama characteristic of the mid-Victorian era. Marrying rare historical provenance with a bold aesthetic, this breathtaking heirloom is a definitive statement piece for the modern connoisseur.
