The Charm of Mixed Metals in Victorian Jewelry
If you’re drawn to rings that tell a story, the Victorian Garnet and Old Mine Cut Diamond Cluster Ring by Fox & Bond is pure magic. This isn’t just jewelry — it’s a piece of history, a romantic whisper from the Victorian era, and a bold statement that will captivate anyone who sees it.
Crafted between the 1870s and 1890s, the ring features a rich 9.3mm round garnet cabochon at the center, surrounded by 12 chunky Old Mine cut diamonds, totaling about 1.08 carats. The deep red garnet contrasts beautifully with the sparkling diamonds, creating a piece that is both bold and romantic.
The ring combines sterling silver on the top with a 10k yellow gold band, a hallmark of Victorian mixed-metal craftsmanship. Its front face measures 0.54 inches with a depth of 0.41 inches, making it a statement piece that sits gracefully on the finger, while the band tapers to 1.8mm for comfort and wearability.
Currently available in size 5.5, the ring can be resized from 4 to 10, giving you flexibility for a perfect fit. Keep in mind that resized antique rings are final sale, as preserving the integrity of each historical piece is part of its charm.
Whether you’re hunting for a unique engagement ring or a special addition to your antique jewelry collection, this Victorian cluster ring offers timeless elegance, historical character, and romantic allure that is impossible to replicate.
