Victorian .64 Carat Columbian No Oil Emerald and Diamond Three Stone Antique EngagementRing
Circa 1885

Victorian antique engagement ring centered with a .64 carat Columbian no oil oval emerald and accented by two old mine diamond accents in a 14K yellow gold setting. During the Victorian era, emeralds were prized not only for their vivid green color but also for their association with hope, renewal, and enduring love, making them a meaningful choice for engagement and sentimental jewelry. Colombian emeralds were especially sought after for their exceptional quality and were among the most desirable gemstones available to European jewelers. The classic three-stone design balances the richly colored emerald with hand-cut old Mine diamonds, a combination that became a hallmark of fine Victorian craftsmanship. Inside the band, the ring is stamped "G. Seifert" along with an 18K hallmark, preserving the maker's mark and adding to the ring's history and provenance.
