This 19^th century Amethyst and Pearl ring is a rare Victorian treasure that exudes romantic glamour. Crafted circa 1890, the 14-carat gold band is a casting of an original Victorian shank, with finely engraved ruched line details.  

The amethyst is truly exceptional, for it is a natural cut stone with a sweet, light purple complexion reminiscent of lavender. The amethyst is set in a gold filling with a lustrous pearl halo, creating a striking silhouette.

Adornments of this caliber were highly en vogue during Queen Victoria’s reign, as she favored jewelry with opulent designs, ornate details, and regal flair. A wonderful treasure for any art historian’s collection!
