Dazzling Buttercup - Edwardian 18K Gold Diamond Cluster Ring.  This gorgeous (Post) Edwardian 1914 ring is crafted from 18K yellow gold, hallmarked 18 (British hallmark for 18K) , Birmingham hallmark and letter date P for the year 1914.  Featuring 7 natural single cut diamonds, Edwardian stying, and quality gold-work.  The double buttercup ring has a focal point of sparkling diamonds in a cluster, surrounded by a gallery designed as a buttercup (a characteristic of Victorian and Edwardian era rings) The ring is dainty, yet substantial. It is  polished and smooth, which allows for a comfortable fit.  The colour of the gold is a beautiful rich mellow yellow gold colour.  The Victorian era piece has full hallmarks and is in wonderful condition. It would make a unique engagement ring, gift or addition to any fine jewelry collection. 

Note: An appraisal will accompany the ring. This contemporary appraisal is based on the value of the diamond and gold. Therefore it does not take the antiquity value into consideration. 

Comments: In 1953, GIA formally created its diamond grading system, known as the 4 C's. The 4 Cs of diamond quality are the universally recognized diamond grading system still to be used today.  1n 1955, GIA presented its first diamond grading reports, which became the hallmark of grading reports in the diamond industry. Before this time in antiquity clients did not care about diamond grading. It was based more so on the size of the diamonds ( according to budget) , style, and sentiment.  This ring is a wonderful example of the Victorian era, just beautiful! 

In History of the United Kingdom, the Edwardian era was the period of King Edward's reign, from the 22nd of January 1901 until his death on the 6th of May 1910.  This ring is post Edwardian, which was crafted 3 years after King Edward the VII death during his son's King George V reign.
