Ruby and Diamond Openwork Ring

A ruby and diamond ring in 9ct yellow gold, centred with a round ruby of approximately 0.10ct and accented by diamonds totalling approximately 0.04ct. The design is built with an openwork circular panel, giving the ring a light, balanced profile. The ruby brings a strong pink-red focus to the centre, while the small diamonds add brightness at either side. Pierced sections and bead detail give the setting texture and definition, with the yellow gold keeping the overall look warm and clear. It is a compact ring with a decorative vintage character and an easy scale on the hand. The combination of ruby, diamond and openwork gold gives it colour, structure and a distinct period feel without becoming heavy.
