Stunning Victorian antique solitaire engagement ring centered with a 3.67 carat natural antique old mine cut diamond, held in a classic late-19th-century coronet style setting. The diamond shows all the hallmarks of an authentic antique old mine cut—broad facets, a high crown, small table, and a deep pavilion that creates bold, open flashes of light.
The stone is secured in tall, individually hand-drawn prongs rising from a sculpted 18k yellow gold gallery. This airy, floral-like basket is typical of Victorian coronet mountings, designed to elevate the diamond and allow maximum light to enter from all angles.
The shoulders flow into a softly rounded 14k yellow gold band with a subtle taper, and the base of the setting shows natural patina consistent with hand-fabricated Victorian-era goldwork. The overall silhouette is elegant yet substantial, offering impressive finger presence with an antique character only achievable from a true 19th-century diamond. A rare large-scale old mine cut solitaire, preserved in its original Victorian mounting.
18k yellow gold.
