An exquisite bright white sparkly natural earth mined diamond graces this beautifully feminine Victorian 18ct gold Belcher that bears clear hallmarks for London in 1897.
The diamond is an Old European Cut which is the predecessor of the modern brilliant cut and this lovely gemstone is round in shape and full of fire and brilliance. It steals the show sitting securely in the heart of a domed claw setting flanked by decorative carved lines that run round the shoulders.
