Antique Victorian 1872 Garnet Seed Pearl 15ct Ring
Description
This Victorian cluster ring is a beautifully detailed example of late 19th-century craftsmanship, dating to 1872. Set in warm 15ct gold, the ring features a striking arrangement of deep red garnets framed by natural seed pearls, forming a balanced floral-style cluster that was_attach this to the height of Victorian jewellery design.
The shoulders are finely engraved with delicate foliate motifs, hand-cut into the gold and flowing softly along the band. This scrolling decoration reflects the Victorian fascination with nature, growth, and continuity, and adds an elegant transition from band to setting. The rich garnets provide depth and warmth, while the surrounding pearls soften the design with a gentle, luminous contrast.
Garnets were widely worn in Victorian jewellery and symbolised love, devotion, and protection. Seed pearls were associated with purity and remembrance, making this combination especially meaningful in 19th-century sentimental jewellery.
The ring is fully hallmarked inside the band, confirming its gold purity, assay office, and date. The presence of the 15ct gold mark, crown symbol, assay mark, and date letter for 1872 allows the piece to be confidently and precisely dated.
