Estimated to date to the 1850s—possibly from the Civil War era—this delicate antique ring showcases an exceptional oval Persian turquoise in a remarkably pure robin’s egg blue. The 8 × 5.5 mm cabochon sits at the center of a halo of 17 mine-cut diamonds totaling approximately 0.60 ct, their bright sparkle providing a beautiful contrast to the serene turquoise.
The mounting and band are a warm 14k yellow gold, a period-appropriate choice that enhances the stone’s color and gives the piece a soft vintage glow. The ring’s low profile and graceful, feminine silhouette make it comfortable for everyday wear while offering a versatile pop of color that complements both modern and traditional wardrobes.
This antique is in very good condition. T. Foster & Co. has preserved the ring’s historic character—no alterations have been made to its original appearance. We performed a careful cleaning and polishing to restore its beauty, and it is now available and ready to wear.
