Symbolic Antique Sapphire Eye Ring

Gorgeous and unique, this antique ring features a unique, east-west navette-shaped halo of diamonds around a single rich cushion-shaped sapphire, evocative of a protective eye. For centuries, white metals have been used to set diamonds to brighten their appearance - as of the 20th century, this has primarily been done in white gold and platinum, but before those options were available to jewellers it was silver that fit the bill and commonly topped yellow gold rings. We love these combinations of two-tone metals for the ease with which they blend into any jewelry collection and the way they tie together a mixed metal look.

The low rise, sturdy materials, and talismanic effect of this ring are endlessly compelling - she'd make a perfect companion through all your future adventures, whether as a special memento to yourself, a non-traditional engagement ring, or even a unique "something blue" on a special day.

Very good antique condition with wear in line with age and use, band is sturdy and all stones are secure.
