Victorian 18ct Gold Ring set with a Large Imperial Topaz

489T
Written by Olly Gerrish

A wonderful 18ct gold ring that has been set with a large Imperial topaz that weighs over fifteen carats. Topaz is very sought after and quite a rare stone. It is quite different to a citrine. The name imperial topaz is said to have originated in 19th century Russia, where the Ural Mountain mines were an important source of topaz reportedly reserved for the royal family. The warm orange of the stone goes beautifully with the colour of the gold. The low ornate claw settings give this ring a simple elegance and the trifurcated shoulders lighten the look.

It looks impressive when worn.
