Birmingham 1883! Victorian 9ct Yellow Gold Turquoise and Pearl Ring
This piece is rich in character and features a beautifully symmetrical design centred around a vibrant cabochon Turquoise that is surrounded by lustrous natural seed pearls and complemented by additional turquoise accents to each shoulder.
The wide gallery is decorated with hand-engraved detailing and geometric motifs, giving the ring a wonderfully architectural appearance that reflects the decorative style of the late Victorian Era. Every detail has been carefully crafted, from the engraved shoulders to the raised beadwork and delicate settings, making this far more than a simple band ring.
Crafted in 9ct Yellow Gold, the ring weighs 3.8 grams and is a comfortable Size N. It was fully hallmarked in Birmingham in 1883, bearing the Makers Mark W.M for William Maguire, adding both authenticity and collectable appeal.
Turquoise was one of the Victorian Era's most cherished gemstones, symbolising protection, friendship and good fortune, while pearls represented purity and wisdom. Their combination creates a meaningful and elegant ring that remains just as wearable today as it was over 140 years ago.
Whether this is added to a growing antique jewellery collection or worn as a unique everyday piece, this beautifully preserved Victorian ring offers timeless style and genuine period craftsmanship.
