Victorian Bohemian Garnet Rose Gold Navette Ring c.1870s

Description

A charming original Victorian ring; modelled as a navette shape in warm rose gold and studded with rose cut Bohemian Garnets in rich shades of orangey-red.

Bohemian garnet jewellery became particularly popular during the Georgian and Victorian eras as when rose cut, it looks captivating by candlelight. Bohemian garnets were mined in what is now called modern day Czechoslovakia and are highly prized for the rich orangey-reds which this ring features.
