How old could this ring be

Hello
During a holiday in Umbria, (central Italy) in 2009, I bought an antique white gold ring, set with 1 Sapphire and 4 Brilliants,
from a reliable jeweler. (Mauro Salvetti Di Paola Baldassarri E C. s.N.C.).

I did not receive an original certificate, because the ring was once pawned.
However, a manually written paper on which the ring was described as: gold ring with 1 sapphire and 4 diamonds.

The ring is said to have been handcrafted according to the jeweler and referred to the setting of the stones. My question, is there an antiquity date to be set on this ring.

Can someone please tell how old this ring could be. The jeweler could only say that he was very old and antique.

 

and more!

 

Hello Jeanny, helpful if you can go back and edit your photos to "FULL IMAGE". Thanks!

 

eh... perhaps you can click on the images

 

Just trying to help. Look at other posts here. Photos show in the text box, not everyone is willing to open and close every image.

If you go back, edit, click all on "FULL IMAGE", you'll get more responses on your question. Thanks.

 

Thanks Lucille.b

 

i'm not used to seeing this .........

 

from all the old rings we see here.....a drilled hole ...looks strange..

 

There are reasons for holes under the stones.But if that is a hanging sliver of metal it could slice the skin easily. Was the hole drilled from the inside or outside?

 

Hello Hollyblue
I dond't know wat the hole means in the ring. I bought this ring this way.
Could the hole have nothing to do with the possible run-off of water?
Could the ring have been wide open before like the picture below?

Maby you can tell another reasons for holes under a stone.

I also found this one.

 

Here is another one with a hole in the center

 

Lovely ring Jeanny. Although the mark is worn, so no detail can be seen, the shape of the mark indicates that the ring dates from 1935 or after.
The hole is odd, but I have seen some odd things on pre-1960 Italian jewellery.
It has nothing to do with excess water. The open details on the other rings you posted are different.

 

Holes under an enclosed setting are for steam cleaning the stones and were used long before ultrasonic cleaners were invented. see linked examples....https://www.significantotherbroadway.com/best-jewelry-steam-cleaner/

 

Very interesting to know Hollyblue. I think I have to take it to a proffession juweler.
I already took it at 2 local Jewelers, but i don't think they are able to tel me more about the stones etc.

 

Thank you Any Jewelry.
