18ct Gold, Moonstone and Old Cut Diamond Cluster Ring

This is a simply exquisite antique moonstone and diamond cluster ring.  Set on a substantial 18ct gold band, this stunning cabachon moonstone glows a wonderful blue/grey colour as it sits high amist 11 extremely lively old cut diamonds.  The diamonds framing the central stone give the ring a very pretty flower motif.

This ring is not marked but given its style and diamond cut, I would date it to the 1910's.  It is a UK size O 1/2, which is a US size 7 1/2, but it could be re-sized within reason by your local jeweller.

This ring would be a spectacular engagement ring, or a thoughtful gift to that special person in your life.

When Moonstones were first discovered in Ancient Rome, it was believed that they were formed from solidified beams of moonlight. It was also thought that Diana, the goddess of the moon, could be seen within the stone, and that it would bestow love, wisdom and good fortune upon the wearer.   Other cultures have associated the moonstone with good luck powers, and a symbol of love and passion.
