In my not so knowledgeable but freely given opinion, the diamond cut style would put it in the 1920's at the latest. It's a wonderful antique 5 stone ring (plus a few extra melee for good measure). It's truly wonderful. Do you know how old it is?

Victorian five stone with rose cut accents, it’s really pretty spectacular. This one looks similar but yours has those lovely rose cuts:

Gorgeous! If it needs some babysitting I would be glad to keep it warm for you

 

[VRBeauty]

I’d call it totally drool worthy!

These are called ‘carved’ rings. I have a sapphire one.

That’s beautiful, it’s Victorian! It’s such a wow piece!

Beautiful! Looks like someone took very good care of it over the years. I see many similar rings from that era where the prongs are broken and worn and the diamonds are chipped. Wear it and enjoy it!

I would have said Deco from that first photo (before I knew it was 189 -- thinking that was enamel but maybe it's just shadows? It is lovely!

Are the rose cuts open in the back of the ring or covered?

Victorian oec 5 stone with rose cut accents in a Belcher carved claw style. Some also call it a 'boat' ring because of its graduated diamonds.

My personal favorite, and I've been obsessively looking at them for forever. It's in great shape, with minimal shank thinning, great prongs and only microscopic chips if any at all. It's a fantastic example and I want it!
Jealous!

Please wear it!
