Romantic Victorian Amethyst Ring

A beautiful Victorian ring featuring a soft, pale amethyst bordering on the coveted "Rose de France" hue, with gentle pink undertones. The ring perfectly complements this romantic stone, with fine prongs, floral shoulders, and a sweetly reeded band. While amethyst comes from one of earth's most abundant minerals, quartz, the clarity of a fine stone combined with the millennia-long associate of purple with wealth, power, and royalty continue to lend an air of importance to a beautifully made amethyst ring.

Good antique condition with wear to stone and gold in line with age and use. Stone is secure in its setting, and gold has rich patina.
