A Late 19th century Navette Cluster gold ring with diamonds.

An exquisite late Victorian marquise — or navette — ring, set with a dazzling pavé of 25 old-cut diamonds. The elongated boat-shaped bezel, a classic of 19th-century jewellery design, showcases a central cushion-cut diamond of 1.25 carats, surrounded by graduated old-mine and old-European cut stones.

The characteristic soft sparkle of antique-cut diamonds, with their larger facets and romantic fire, distinguishes this piece from modern jewellery. The substantial total weight of 5.5 carats ensures remarkable presence on the hand.

A timeless statement piece from the height of the Victorian era.
