This ring dates from the late years of Queen Victoria's reign and shows the design characteristic of this era. It is made of high-carat yellow gold and is set with a natural blue sapphire. It is flanked by two old-cut diamonds with a total weight of around 0.40 carats. The stones are arranged in a row at an angle to the finger and are held in place by three-part shoulders with volume around the edges. The design follows the concept of the so-called "trilogy" ring, in which three gemstones symbolize the past, present and future. Traditionally, the central stone stands for the present moment. The choice of gemstones is also based on symbolic considerations. Diamonds have always been a symbol of constancy, while sapphires are often associated with faithful affection. The hallmark on the inside of the ring band identifies the manufacturer: the Samuel Usher manufactory in Birmingham. The date letter used there, a Gothic "u", dates the first inspection and hallmarking of the ring to 1894. The flat design and the restrained nature of the setting make the ring look surprisingly modern even today.
