UK ring size M 1/2, US size 6.5

The ring weighs a good 7.9 grams. It carries an Austro-Hungarian Empire ‘fox head’ hallmark, indicating that the ring was made between 1872 and 1922. It also indicates a fineness of 14K gold /585 gold as well as the city of Vienna. There is also a maker’s mark present (JW).

Despite being over 110 years old, the ring remains in excellent condition and has a beautifully silky feel on the finger from years of wear! All of the stones are securely set with no surface scratches or chips whatsoever, a real rarity for a ring of this age! Each gemstone weighs approximately 0.3cts. The gemstone all appear to be natural, and the sapphire shows no signs of heat treatment. The band measures 5mm across at the back.
