That makes any 15ct piece a proper antique by definition, and a nice bit of jewellery history to own alongside the ring itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFive marquise-cut rubies march across the front in a row, each held in a delicate rope-twist gold surround with a pierced gallery beneath, letting light through the setting in a way that's typical of the fine, detailed work from this period. The rich pink-red of the rubies against warm 15ct gold gives it real colour and presence without being a heavy ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAt 2.8g it's light and comfortable for everyday wear, and it comes to us pre-loved and in good condition for its age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEvery pre-loved piece at Fogal \u0026amp; Barnes is checked over by hand, we're always honest about what you're getting, and with a piece this old, that's part of the appeal rather than a flaw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFancy seeing a genuine antique in person?\u003c\/strong\u003e Come and try it on in our Harrogate showroom, or message us on Instagram or through the website and we'll ship it to you anywhere in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15ct gold (antique standard, used 1854–1932)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStyle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFive-stone ring, rope-twist gallery setting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStones\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 x marquise-cut rubies\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRing size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eP (UK)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.8g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCondition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePre-loved, good condition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePrice\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e£799\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this ring new or pre-loved?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePre-loved and genuinely antique, 15ct gold was only used in the UK between 1854 and 1932, so this ring is a true period piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is it 15ct gold rather than 9ct or 18ct?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e15ct was a legal UK hallmark standard used only for that period before being replaced it's now a rarity that marks a piece out as antique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I see this ring in person before buying?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, you're welcome to visit our Harrogate showroom to try it on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo you ship UK-wide?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, fully insured shipping to any UK address, not just Yorkshire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAntique rings can sometimes be resized within a size or so, but it depends on the setting, get in touch and we'll advise.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fogal \u0026 Barnes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49116357984439,"sku":"Pre-loved","price":799.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/6513\/1703\/files\/pre-loved_ruby_ring_vintage_15ct_gold_ring_antique_gold_ring_UK_second_hand_five_stone_ring_Victorian_ruby_ring_pre-owned_antique_jewellery_UK_vintage_ring_for_sale_UK_second_hand_fine_jewellery_UK_rare_15_carat_gold_ring.jpg?v=1788614022","url":"https:\/\/fogalandbarnes.com\/products\/pre-loved-vintage-15ct-yellow-gold-five-stone-ruby-ring-size-p","provider":"Fogal \u0026 Barnes ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
