J.R. Wood & Sons 14k Gold Victorian Ruby Ring
Couldn't load pickup availability
A classic ruby solitaire from the Victorian era, set in rich 14k yellow gold. The warm-toned ruby is prong-set and framed by rounded shoulders with subtle tapering. A graceful antique piece—understated yet full of character. A beautiful example of 19th-century craftsmanship, this piece wears beautifully on its own or paired with other antique favorites.
The ring was originally set with a diamond that was chipped. We removed the diamond and set it with an antique ruby from a piece we couldn‘t restore. What we love about this piece is that the prongs are seamlessly part of the ring.
J.R. Wood & Sons were Brooklyn jewelers that started their business in 1850. More than 100 years later, the business still manufactures wedding jewelry as Art Carved.

Sizing
Rings
The majority of our rings are one-of-a-kind. If you would like to order a ring in a specific size, please contact us and we will do our best to accommodate your request.
Helping you find the perfect fit is our priority. There is a flat fee of $60 to size down. The sizing-up cost varies based on width of the ring and the amount of material required.
Keep in mind that finger sizes fluctuate due to factors such as temperature and time of day. Rings with an open space under the mounting, as well as contour bands, may fit differently than fully round rings.
Ring sizings take 3 weeks before they ship.
