Victorian Dutch Navette Ring, Lab Ruby, Rosecut Diamond Halo, 14K Gold

A lab-grown ruby sits at the centre of this navette ring, surrounded by a full halo of rosecut diamonds set close and even in 14K gold. The ruby is a vivid, saturated red. The rosecut diamonds around it are hand faceted, each one catching light softly rather than sharply. The navette form runs along the finger, pointed at both ends, giving the ring a long, composed silhouette.

One of one

The ruby has carried the same meaning for centuries: passion, protection, love that does not diminish. In Victorian jewellery it held a second, more private meaning. Stones were often arranged to spell words, their first letters forming a message only the wearer and the giver would understand. The ruby was R, the opening letter of REGARD. To give a ring with a ruby in it was, in that language, to say something.
