15ct Yellow Gold Sapphire and Diamond Starburst Ring
Couldn't load pickup availability
This 132-year-old ring is a testament to the beauty that is antique jewellery. Set in rosey-tinted 15ct yellow gold are 2 blue sapphires and 3 diamonds in a starburst setting. One of the natural sapphires has a chip, which is slightly annoying, but isn't noticeable when worn.
Fun fact: 15ct gold was discontinued in England in 1932, making this and any 15ct gold jewellery a rare find.
The shank is fully hallmarked 15 625 Birmingham U for 1894.
• the b band width is 1.5mm at the narrowest point
• the ring weighs 2.6g
• the 2 sapphires each measure approx. 2mm in diameter
• the 3 diamonds each measure approx. 1mm in diameter (the central diamond is slightly larger than the outer two)
• setting sits 1mm above the finger
Overall, the ring wears very comfortably and is in great condition. One of the sapphires has a chip but isn't noticeable when worn. The shank itself is probably too thin for every day use but would look great at a special occasion.
Size: UK N / US 6.75

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.
