About the Item
This exceptional Edwardian-era suffragette ring is a powerful fusion of beauty and meaning. Designed in the dramatic up-finger style, popularly known as “tiara” style, the ring features a 1.60-carat peridot, a 1.15-carat amethyst and a 1.20-carat diamond arranged in the iconic colors of the suffragette movement. The gemstone’s brilliance is heightened by an elegant diamond-set band. Crafted in 18K white gold, the ring is further distinguished by the French eagle’s head stamp, confirming both gold purity and French origin.
Suffragette jewelry carried profound symbolism. Purple stood for dignity, white for purity and green for hope—values central to the women’s suffrage movement. Additionally, the colors spelled out the powerful message: Green—“Give”, White —“Women”, Violet—“Votes.” To wear a jewel such as this in the Edwardian era was a discreet yet unmistakable declaration of solidarity, transforming fine jewelry into a refined act of social and political expression.

Untreated Burma Ruby Bypass Ring, 5.70 Carats
Located in New Orleans, LA
The exquisite 5.70-carat ruby and 4.54-carat diamond showcased in this bypass ring create a tantalizing interplay. The pear-shaped crimson gemstone is certified by the American Gemological Laboratories as being Burmese in origin and all natural, with no indications of thermal treatment to influence the stone's color. The rich red ruby exhibits the coveted hue for which the best Burma rubies are prized. Political unrest caused the closure of the mines in the early 1960s, making these gems exceedingly rare and sought-after.
The pear-shaped Golconda diamond is equally remarkable, certified by the Gemological Institute of America as a highly desirable type IIa diamond with VVS1 clarity. As the GIA notes in its accompanying letter, "Type IIa diamonds are the most chemically pure type of diamond...
