Antique Victorian 14k Yellow Gold 14.84ct Amethyst and Seed Pearl Cocktail Ring
A bold and elegant Victorian ring centering on an impressive oval cabochon amethyst weighing approximately 14.84 carats. The gem displays a soft yet vibrant lavender hue with natural zoning that adds depth and character. Surrounding the amethyst is a halo of delicate seed pearls, their subtle luster providing a refined contrast to the gemstone’s rich glow.
The setting is crafted in 14k yellow gold, with a slim, split-shoulder design that allows the large stone to take center stage while maintaining balance and wearability. The combination of amethyst and pearls was especially beloved in the 19th century for its romantic symbolism: amethyst representing calm and protection, and pearls symbolizing purity and devotion. At once stately and feminine, this cocktail ring exemplifies the Victorian love of statement jewels that blended sentiment, symbolism, and striking beauty.
