A substantial and highly sought after signet ring, combining timeless design with an exceptionally impressive ruby.

Created in rich 18 carat gold and weighing over 9 grams, the ring has all the qualities collectors look for in a classic signet ring. Strong proportions, satisfying weight, and a design that has remained highly coveted for centuries. The bold gold mount has a wonderful presence on the hand, while retaining the understated elegance that makes signet rings so enduringly desirable.

At the centre is a magnificent ruby weighing 0.91 carats, set within a star setting. The vibrant ruby provides a striking focal point, its  almost raspberry hue glowing beautifully against the warm gold surround. Star set gemstones have long been favoured in antique jewellery, allowing the stone to appear as though it is radiating light from within the gold itself.

Due to the ruby's impressive size and rarity within this style of ring, we have had the stone independently certified. Most notably, the report found no evidence of treatment, a highly desirable and increasingly uncommon feature. The vast majority of rubies encountered on the market today have undergone some form of enhancement, making an untreated example of this calibre particularly special.

The combination of a near one carat ruby, substantial 18 carat gold mount, its 1930's age and classic signet ring design creates a piece that is breathtaking. It is equally suited to everyday wear or as a standout addition to a serious jewellery collection.
