Vintage 9ct Gold Lavender Sapphire Ring · Large Oval Stone

This striking vintage ring features a generously sized oval sapphire in a soft lavender-violet hue, beautifully set in solid 9ct yellow gold. The stone is elevated in an elegant openwork crown setting with sculptural petal-style prongs, allowing light to pass through and enhance the gemstone’s colour and presence.
 
Hallmarked in London with the date letter Q for 1971, this ring is a wonderful example of early-1970s British jewellery design — bold, sculptural, and made to stand out. The substantial stone size and airy setting give it strong visual impact while remaining comfortable to wear.
 
A confident vintage statement ring, ideal for someone who appreciates distinctive design and classic British craftsmanship.
