Victorian five stone ADORE ring which spells out the first letter of each gemstone in the following linear pattern: Amethyst-Diamond-Opal-Ruby-Emerald. message ring similar to REGARD and DEAREST rings, ADORE rings were romantic message rings that conveyed a personal message of eternal love to the wearer. The Victorians were all about romance and sentimentality and band rings which spelled out romantic words in gemstones, were immensely popular. Our ring is hallmarked for the Chester guild in England, 18 carat and was made in the year 1842. It is a size 8 1/4- 8 ½. The gemstones are old mine cuts except for the opal which is cabochon. ADORE rings are the rarest of the message rings and with stones in such immaculate condition, rarer still.
