A remarkable example of pre-Second World War jewellery, this ring underwent meticulous restoration upon acquisition. The rub-over setting and shank had worn thin, so we removed the central stone and reinforced the setting for added security. The result is a beautifully restored vintage engagement ring, set with the original diamonds and featuring a mill-grain finish on the shoulders.
