Vintage 18ct Yellow Gold & Platinum Amethyst & Diamond Cluster Ring (c. 1940’s)

Vintage 18ct Yellow Gold, Platinum, Amethyst & Diamond Cluster Ring, Circa 1940s

A richly coloured vintage cluster ring centred with an oval-cut amethyst, its deep violet hue brought to life by a scalloped surround of bright diamonds.

The amethyst is held in warm 18ct yellow gold, while the diamonds are set in platinum—a traditional pairing chosen to heighten their brilliance and create a crisp contrast against the gold. The openwork gallery beneath the cluster adds delicacy to the design and allows light to pass through the stones.

Dating to approximately the 1940s, the ring carries the romance of an earlier era without feeling overly formal. Its generous proportions and vivid colour give it real presence on the hand, while the classic cluster arrangement makes it remarkably wearable.

A distinctive vintage piece with warmth, character and an unmistakably luxurious finish.
