Edwardian 0.18ct Diamond Cluster Ring in 18ct Yellow Gold

A classic diamond cluster ring from the Edwardian period. The inimitable sparkle of old cut diamonds (0.86ct) catches the eye grain set into lustrous platinum. A slim buttery 18ct yellow gold shank completes the design contrasting superbly against the white platinum. The Edwardian period only lasted for nine years (1901-1910), but it was an incredibly important era for jewellery design. Hugely intricate pieces showcasing the very best diamonds and coloured gemstones were worn with elaborate fashions from the most famous French couture houses. Driven by the explosion of court life, steered by the fashion-conscious King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, this was a truly special time. A truly feminine jewel that will look stunning worn to celebrate a summer wedding or milestone occasion.
