Antique Diamond 'X' Ring

A pretty ring made from Victorian components, though it came to me as it is. The central ‘X’ design is silver topped with a gold back and is set throughout with mixed cut diamonds. The diamonds sparkle prettily in the silver setting and there is a lovely twist detail at the centre. I am not sure how this ‘X’ was originally designed; perhaps it was a stick pin? This has been set expertly on a Victorian shank with decorative, floral shoulders that narrows at the back. The gold is 18ct gold and is a lovely bright colour. It is certainly an interesting design and works well.
