A timeless sapphire cluster ring from the mid 20th century! This beautiful ring is crafted in 8ct rose gold and silver top. At the center is a gorgeous natural Sapphire which is a faceted rectangle native cut weighing approximately 1.79 carats. The Australian type sapphire displays a lovely dark greenish blue colour indicative of Queensland material. A border of twelve dazzling white sapphires complements and gives nice contrast to the dark sapphire. There is wonderful hand-pierced workmanship to the undercarriage of the tiered cluster, and raised openwork shoulders adding further style and detail to this fabulous ring. No stamps are sighted to the ring, tests indicate approximately 8ct gold and silver.
Finger size of the ring measures 'O & 1/2' (Aus/UK) or '7 & 1/2' (USA).
