This antique 9k gold ring is a beautiful example of early 20th-century craftsmanship, stamped 9ct H.G.&S. (likely Harrison, Goddard & Sons, Birmingham makers active in the early 1900s). The ring features a hexagon-cut glass ruby in the center, flanked by clear glass stones designed to resemble diamonds.

During the Victorian and Edwardian eras, glass or "paste" stones were often used as a refined and affordable alternative to natural gems. These pieces were worn with pride, showcasing exquisite craftsmanship and elegant design without compromising beauty. This ring carries that tradition, with a timeless aesthetic and delicate details that make it both a wearable treasure and a collectible piece of history.
