This bold 9ct yellow gold bombé ring has a wonderfully substantial presence, with its broad, softly domed face completely covered in 40 diamonds arranged across five rows. The diamonds range from approximately 1mm to 3mm in diameter, creating a richly textured pavé surface in which the warm yellow gold settings peek through between the stones. The graduated, rounded profile gives the ring a distinctly sculptural quality, while the plain 4mm shank provides a comfortable contrast to the heavily set face. Despite its impressive appearance, the ring weighs a very wearable 6g and sits comfortably on the finger.

Fully hallmarked JSN, 9K, 375 with a London import mark, the hallmarking places the ring within the late 20th-century period, consistent with an imported piece from around the 1980s. The ring is presented in excellent condition, with the diamonds securely set and the polished yellow gold retaining its attractive finish.

Fun fact: The term bombé comes from the French for “bomb-shaped”, describing the characteristic swollen, three-dimensional form of this style. Bombé rings have appeared in jewellery since the early 20th century and experienced notable revivals, particularly in the mid-20th century and again during the 1980s — making the rounded, diamond-pavé design of this ring very much part of a long-running jewellery tradition.

FAQs

Do you offer resizing or alterations?

I'm afraid due to lack of resources, I cannot offer any ring resizing or alterations at the moment, but I do recommend to my clients to reach out to their local jeweller for a quote on how much they would charge.

What condition are these pieces in?

All of my items are solid gold and are either modern, retro (over 20 years old), vintage (over 40 years old), or antique (over 100 years old) but they're all preloved/secondhand. Signs of wear and imperfections are more than likely (but isn't that just the joy of preloved and old jewellery?) so please make sure to double-check product information before purchasing to avoid any disappointment.

How do I know the metal purity is accurate?

All metal purities listed (e.g. 9ct, 18ct) are based on visible hallmarks present on the items. Where hallmarks are unclear or absent, this will be stated in the listing (e.g. tested for 9ct gold). All my items are solid – no plated or vermeil here!

How will my item be packaged and shipped?

All pieces are carefully packaged in a little white box with a gold string bow; for UK customers I send via Royal Mail Special Delivery to ensure they arrive promptly. For international customers, the same applies, and the delivery service is calculated at checkout. Items will be insured as per delivery service default limit.

What is your returns policy?

We want you to love your purchase. If you're not completely happy, please contact us within 14 days of receiving your item. As all pieces are one-of-a-kind antiques, we cannot offer exchanges, but we will do our best to resolve any issues.
