Unusual ring - the large oval amethyst is rose cut and mounted in a 12 carat gold crown-shaped setting. Flat band. No hallmarks, but tests as 12 ct. Nice soft colour to the gold. The stone may well have come from a necklace, as the Victorians and Georgians were fond of remodelling their jewellery. Or, it could have been made for a man to wear. Face of ring measures 1.7 cm by 1.4 cm. The band is 5 mm wide. Ring fitting is English size O (USA size 7) with an internal diameter of 17.35 mm. Excellent condition for the age. The style would fit the Arts & Crafts era, circa 1880s to 1910.
