A navette is a narrow oval shape with pointed ends and means “little ship”. One of the most beautiful versions of the shape is the navette ring. The elongated shape lengthens the hand elegantly and the placement of the single round faceted Burmese ruby sprinkled with twenty-four point cut Indian diamonds, translates into a sparkling statement. Rose gold, the point cut diamonds, and the Burmese round ruby place it in the early Georgian Era (1750-1780). It is in good condition. The center ruby measures approximately 4.00 mm. in diameter and is estimated to weigh 0.50 carats. The total diamond weight is estimated to be one third of a carat. Ring top measures 26 x 9mm. Weight is 4 grams. Country of origin:  England. Size 7-1/2
