This is such a lovely band - in a unique buckle ring design that i have not come across before. Hallmarked for 18ct Gold, it features an old old mine cut diamond in a square setting.  Interesting rope detail follows the diamond along the ring for around 4cm.   This ring is a UK size M 1/2, which is a US size 6 1/2

Buckle rings were prevalent in the Victorian era, when sentimental jewellery was extremely popular. Buckles on jewellery were given as love tokens. They symbolised the binding love between the giver and the wearer of the ring. They were also regarded as symbols of loyalty and memory.
