A stunning Rhodolite garnet and seed pearl conversion ring from the Edwardian era, c1910! Made of 9ct rose gold and originally a brooch, this unique slender ring is a striking work of art on the finger! Taking centre stage is the beautiful raspberry-red rhodolite garnet stone which rests in a bezel collet. The bright garnet measures approximately 6.90mm and estimated weight is 1.20 carats. Framing the ring is a gleaming gold rail which forms graceful curves and peaks down the finger. Delicate parallel lines comprise within the frame and one little white seed pearl rests either side atop the centre line, giving further Edwardian elegance and intricacy. The design suspends on a mirrored under-rail which gives comfort whilst wearing, as well as an adding an opulent bespoke finish. A smooth and plain shank makes up the rest of the ring. Stamped "375" inside the shank denoting 9ct gold.
Finger size measures K (Aus) or 5 & 1/3 (USA)

| The overall condition of the ring is superb. The gold and stones have weathered extremely well considering the 100+ age. There appears to be no facet wear to the garnet and stones all appear secure in their bezel collets. The entire conversion ring has had a polish so it looks near to new condition with no wear or surface marks visible. |
