Thoughts on this Vintage Natural Ruby Diamond Ring

[Lentibulariaceae]

Well, I could post a photo of a nice ruby, but the price might be out of reach. That's the eternal conundrum. Are you set on a finished ring (if so, does it have to be vintage), or would you consider a loose stone? What is your max budget for each?

Or perhaps… the eternal corundum?

This just arrived today. It was only $640 USD. Surely the setting would be worth more. I enjoy buying second hand jewellery.
The rubies total 2.20 carat and are completely eye clean. Little abrasion to one Ruby only seen with loupe but who cares! and 40 points of diamonds in 18ct white gold.

Great price and nice ring, this was good deal for sure, well done and enjoy your new shiny!!

Or perhaps… the eternal corundum?

Indeed!

Agree that spinel, garnet, or rubelitte would be much more feasible to buy in a nice color!

Pink tourmaline too I think.

Naturally, I went straight to Enhoerning for an example of fine color (and clarity)... I also think this price is fantastic (even if it's not on budget). Actually, somebody buy this thing, please! Tiny window (maybe), but I think I can forgive it.

I don't think she lists everything on her website, and she's usually pretty good about updating IG pieces with "sold." So definitely inquire!

I don’t have the funds. But God it’s gorgeous and if I did, I would snap it. I wonder what the origin is.

I'm going to be sad to see it go! I hope a PSer buys it. If I had to guess, I'd say Mozambique.

Decided to go for a Vintage French Diamond and Ruby ring for half the price of other. It’s not as sparkling but colour a bit better and has 1.20ct of diamonds
