Orange Diopside Ring Vintage 9ct Gold Diamond Set Oval Size L
- Vivid orange colour and contrasting diamond sparkle give this vintage ring an immediate presence on the hand. The oval orange diopside forms a strongly coloured focal point, displaying warm amber-to-fiery orange tones that become particularly striking as the stone catches the light, while diamond-set shoulders add a balanced line of brightness either side.
- Crafted in solid 9ct yellow gold, the raised oval setting is complemented by polished gold side supports, an open gallery and five diamonds set along each shoulder. The combination gives the ring noticeable gemstone colour and sparkle while retaining an elegant, wearable profile.

Buy With Confidence
- Beautiful jewellery doesn't have to be new to be special. Vintage and antique pieces offer character, individuality, timeless style and the pleasure of discovering something different, often with excellent value compared with buying new.
- This appreciation for pre-loved jewellery was passed down from my nan, who never felt the need to buy new. When I inherited her jewellery and began finding new homes for the pieces I wouldn't wear myself, I discovered a passion that became Cherished Jewellery.
- Today, I carefully select vintage and antique jewellery with that same appreciation for character, quality and value.
- Every piece is individually photographed and honestly described, with clear condition information, accurate measurements and gemstone and hallmark details based on the available evidence, helping you buy with confidence.
- Beautiful jewellery with a past, ready to become part of your story.
