This antique diamond ‘boat’ ring is a complete babe, what makes this piece quite unique is how clean and simple the design is.
Most of the antique rings of this style that I’ve seen are much more opulent in design, with lots of decadent scroll work to the band. This one, however, has a smooth and sleek 18ct gold band which opens to reveal five sparkling old cut diamonds, which sit neatly together like very delicious peas in a pod.
The piece was hallmarked in Chester in 1912, which makes this quite a rare hallmark as this Assay office closed in the mid 1960s. This, coupled with the desirable old cut of the diamonds and the sleek design make this quite a special piece in my books.
