Why we love it
This is such a beautifully wearable example of an antique Australian diamond ring. Five bright old mine cut diamonds sit across the finger with that easy balance we always look for - refined enough to feel special, but substantial enough to wear and enjoy often.
The 18ct yellow gold has a rich warmth on the hand, and the carved undergallery adds a beautiful little moment of detail from the side. It's the kind of craftsmanship that showcases why we love antique pieces - it's thoughtful, elegant, and made to last.
What makes this one especially lovely is the Australian maker’s mark - William Drummond was active in Melbourne from 1880 to 1917. This is not just a beautiful antique five stone, it's a traceable little piece of Melbourne history.
Classic, sparkly, nicely weighted, and full of significance. A wonderful everyday antique diamond ring, and a special one for anyone who loves Australian pieces with provenance.
Before you buy
How do you authenticate your pieces?
We carefully assess every piece using our gemmological training, specialist tools, and industry experience. We are both GIA Graduate Gemmologists and have also completed the Applied Jewelry Professional (AJP) qualification.
We work closely with our jeweller, who has almost 50 years of experience and is also a qualified gemmologist.
Carat weights are estimates based on measurements taken in the setting unless otherwise stated. Precise weights can only be obtained from loose stones. Many of our diamonds are old cuts, which are often asymmetrical and not calibrated due to traditional hand-cutting techniques.
We aim to provide clear photos and videos from multiple angles to help you purchase with confidence.
Do US customers have to pay tariffs or duties?
No - for United States customers, the price shown includes insured DHL Express or Australia Post shipping and import duties/tariffs.
This means there should be no separate bill for these charges on delivery. We always ship at full declared value so your parcel stays compliant, secure, and fully insured.
