General Information:

  • US Size: 6 ⅝ (between a size 6.50 and 6.75, though slightly closer to a 6.50) and sizable by the buyer's preferred jeweler post-purchase.
  • Total Carat Weight: 1.10 ctw
  • Total Precious Metal Weight:  1.63 dwt
  • Precious Metal Material: 14k yellow gold  throughout
  • Dimensions: This ring faces up 4.50 mm north to south x about 17.65 mm east to west (from outer prong to outer prong), and rises about 4.40 mm from the finger. The band tapers from about 1.85 mm at the pinched shoulders to 1.80 mm at the base of the shank.
  • Weight:  2.54 grams
  • Markings:  The interior of the shank is stamped with "14K꘎", which indicates the gold content followed by a symbol denoting the maker.
  • Era:  The five Old Mine Cut diamonds were each cut, faceted and polished by the hand of an artisan at least 150 years ago, circa 1870. It is very possible that these are even older, and could date to any point during the 19th century. The yellow gold prong mounting, however, is more recent, and dates to between the 1960s and 1990s.
  • Buyer Notes: These diamonds are affectionately known in the industry as "salt & pepper" diamonds, described as such because of their natural internal inclusions, which appear like little galaxies within each stone. Please read "The Story" below for the full description of these diamonds, which are historic, animated and boast a unique charm like only antique stones can! Prospective buyers, please keep in mind all of this ring's qualities as you consider a purchase, and keep in mind that because of the diamonds' exceptional freckled nature, this is a great opportunity to acquire a classic Victorian 1+ carat look at a steal of a deal! 

Specifications:

  • Center Stone Type: Diamond
  • Center Stone Count: One (1)

  • Center Stone Dimensions: 4.64 x 4.50 mm, measured within mounting so as to preserve the ring's integrity.
  • Center Stone Shape: Old Mine Cut (set on its axis within the setting to emphasize the diamond's antique cushion-like silhouette)
  • Center Stone Color:  H-I
  • Center Stone Clarity: I1-I2
  • Side Stone Type: Diamond
  • Side Stone Count:  Four (4)
  • Side Stone Dimensions and Carat Weights:

  • Side Stone Color: The two diamonds directly flanking the center are about L-M in color (slightly richer champagne color), while the outermost diamonds are about I-J in color.
  • Side Stone Clarity: I1-I2

The Story:

A staple jewel for every antique jewelry enthusiast, this ring features a spread of five Old Mine Cut diamonds dazzling in warmth and character. These historic gems are mounted within a buttery 14k yellow gold band that dates to the latter half of the 20th century, likely the choice of a former inheritor of this tapered diamond set. Each cushiony diamond has been cleverly set on its axis, so that the plumper cut of these stones is accentuated, giving the face of the ring a decidedly curvy silhouette. The marriage of the antique stones and the more contemporary band offers an updated twist on the classic Edwardian 'boat' ring. It makes for an elegant statement when worn alone, and just as lovely an addition to any ring stack.

Most notably, these diamonds are flecked with internal inclusions, every single one originating to the formation of the stones over billions of years deep within the earth. Included diamonds have come into favor with the market, colloquially dubbed "salt & pepper" diamonds, and much beloved for their individuality. Indeed, each diamond's specks are Mother Nature's fingerprints, left as as proud evidence of their organic roots.

To best understand the dispositions of these inclusions, it is important to note that while these inclusions are not very perceptible (individually) to the naked eye, their presence cause the diamonds to have subtly hazier appearances with warmer undertones. None of the inclusions are distinct, dark black carbon specks, rather, are pinpoints, clouds and needles that are too small to see with the eye. Simply put, these stones' inclusions is more 'salt' and less 'pepper'. Best of all, these celestial inclusions result in the diamonds' wonderful range of warm, honey to silvery colors and do not hinder the diamonds' incredible bursts of sparkle.

Sweeping the finger with hypnotic scintillation, this ring is timeless and versatile, a relic of another era with no less beauty than the day the diamonds were first fashioned.

General Information: All additional jewelry boxes, ring boxes, and other jewelry items pictured alongside a featured listing are considered props, are for photographic and display purposes only and are not included in the transaction unless otherwise noted. Items do not come with physical documentation, appraisals, or certifications, unless explicitly stated in the item description and/or title. While jewelry is inspected upon procurement by the shop as well as prior to shipment, Revival Fine Jewelry cannot guarantee a warranty once items leave our inventory, given the delicate and individual nature of secondhand articles and the unaccountability of buyer handling post-purchase.

Shipping: All orders are carefully packed within a branded Revival Fine Jewelry gift box, secured with recycled materials when possible, and shipped within a discreet outer shipping parcel. All orders ship with tracking, insurance and signature confirmation. Shipping options are presented at checkout. Per law and inegrity, international orders are always marked as commodity imports and customers are responsible for any and all customs expenses, VAT taxes and import fees, as well as any clearance costs legally dictated by their respective destination countries. These expenses are not calculated into the pricing structure, and returns based on import costs will not be permitted.

Returns: While Revival Fine Jewelry aims to provide a smooth experience from start to finish, customers are encouraged to reach out regarding any issue or dissatisfaction, so that we may work together toward a resolution. If a return is desired, the shop must be notified of an intention to return within 3 days of confirmed delivery, and item(s) must be shipped back to the shop within 7 days of confirmed delivery. All materials (gift box, inserts, cards) must be returned with the item(s). Returns declared after the 3 day window and/or postmarked after 7 days of receipt will neither be accepted nor refunded. Customers are responsible for generating an insured return shipping label (international customers included) and relaying the tracking information to Revival Fine Jewelry. Returns that do not include full insurance and/or tracking, and are damaged or lost in transit, will not be refunded. If a return is accepted, customers will be refunded less the original cost of shipping, handling and insurance, the expense of any damages incurred, and a 10% restocking fee (of the original purchase price). All sale items, items altered or resized by the buyer post-purchase, and all storage/ boxes are considered final sale and are ineligible for a return or refund.

Sale Terms: Sale prices are only valid within the prescribed sale window, unless otherwise stated by Revival Fine Jewelry or agreed upon between Revival Fine Jewelry and a designated customer. To maintain business sustainability and general fairness, individual customers are not entitled to exclusive notification of, or owed access to, store sales antecedently. Orders processed prior to a promotion or sale, items placed on layaway prior to a sale, and payments paid through layaway prior to a sale will not be retroactively adjusted to reflect sale pricing or terms.

Specially Negotiated Deals: Items purchased at specially negotiated discounts, deals or prices through any platform between Revival Fine Jewelry and a designated customer are considered final sale, including rates arranged and agreed upon via Facebook, Instagram, email or any other method. Closing deals at special rates reflects a desire by both parties to reach an expeditious and absolute sale. The intention of specially negotiated discounts, deals or sale prices through any platform between Revival Fine Jewelry and a designated customer, is to eliminate extra expenses and/or use of time and resources to formally list or re-list items per their specific and inherent value-determining qualities, as well as avoid unseen overhead business costs, stocking obligations, and all other disclosed or undisclosed monetary and nonmonetary expenditures.

Pricing: Revival Fine Jewelry reserves the right to decrease, increase, alter and modify inventory pricing to meet market rarity, demand or value; to offset platform, transaction or seller's fees; to adapt to economic inflation and fluctuation; and to defray specific business expenses. Pricing is the sole discretion of every small business.

Regarding Brooches & Pins: Often significantly and curiously undervalued jewelry items, brooches, pins and stick pins are treasured pieces of history in this shop. Accordingly, their pricing is calculated analogous to other fine jewelry, including their symbolic meaning, rarity and historical prestige. Such pieces are typically converted to other forms of jewelry, and are therefore becoming increasingly rare in their original states. Aside from being perfectly wearable as sophisticated lapel ornaments, brooches and pins of all kinds are prime candidates for many kinds of fine jewelry conversions, including rings, earrings, pendants, and charms, if so desired by the consumer post-purchase. Revival Fine Jewelry does not perform conversion projects for customers.

Regarding Storage & Boxes: All specifications, including but not limited to the measurements, age, origins, and material compositions are supplied in good faith as professional estimations constructed using professional grade tools, years of learned and honed skills, educational resources and academic scholarship, and refined research methods. Regardless of our confidence in our descriptions and the photographs deemed viable extensions of these descriptions, we cannot guarantee the definitiveness, faultlessness, or exactitude beyond our knowledge and expertise. Kindly keep in mind that this and all items are sold as-is vintage, antique and estate secondhand wares, and consequently bear conditional wear in matter and operation commensurate with age and use.
