Today’s “antique inspired” designs, especially engagement ring designs are inspired by this true antique prong setting. This ring evokes the delicate airiness of the late Victorian, early Edwardian era, and is well-made. The setting has been reclaimed and saved from being melted.
The antique 14k setting has been paired with a stunning, spready 2.25ct natural, untreated Zambian emerald (minor oil) that is vivid and a gorgeous tone of green. The stone face measures a spready 10.4 x 7.4mm. It’s currently a size 6.25 and sizable.
Note: This item was restored by our little Los Angeles shop and is one-of-a-kind. We will continue restoring more pieces in the future but we cannot replicate this exactly. Once it's sold, it's gone, which makes these restorations so special. Add to cart to make it yours!
Why we love it
This ring is absolutely breathtaking and would make a great heirloom/ milestone/ engagement piece. Emeralds are known to symbolize loyalty, new beginnings, abundance, prosperity, friendship, growth, and fidelity in love. Emerald is the birthstone for the month of May.
Each emerald has its own "jardin" or unique fingerprint of inclusions. This emerald has been chosen for its vivid color and beautiful jardin.

from 8 reviewsFirst purchase was fabulous. Communication & item sent so quickly just as described
Will be back soon for more purchases
I purchased the medium bolt clasp and it’s incredibly versatile and can easily fit a shocking number of charms! Well made and now I’m eyeing the large version!
I ordered this wring in hopes to find the perfect “pre loved” wedding band that I can wear to work since I work in healthcare. I needed something sturdy and comfortable and this band is just that! It is the perfect size and great value for what I purchased. :) Patricia is a dream to work with and carries the prettiest gold! She answers all of your questions with kindness and patience. I will continue to support her and her business!
I use this bolt clasp almost every day. It’s a perfect connector for a charm jumble. Arthritis in my hands makes it hard for me to connect most chain clasps. This bolt, which stays open until you click it closed makes all my chains easier to use. Love it!
Tris & Rue made my buying experience so easy and the owner had great communication and even gave care instructions. I am so in love with my ring and look forward to purchasing from Tris & Rue again.
Tris and Rue is one of my absolute favorite new (to me) places to browse and purchase vintage and antique goodies. Not only is the inventory beautifully curated, but Patricia is the sweetest, kindest soul. Such helpful and thoughtful service and incredible product. OBSESSED with my new cigar band!!!
This antique watch chain has turned out to be a perfect "anchor" item in my jewelry collection and a piece I turn to frequently. The chain is just as described - solid and substantial, with a gorgeous patina and clear stamps on each link. I love having the option to add charms or pendants using either the bolt clasp or the dog clip. It is a nice length for a vintage/antique watch chain and can be made even versatile with a connector, chain, or bead extender. Patricia was kind and patient in sharing information and photos of the chain, and made the decision-making process so easy. I ended up not only adding a beautiful antique piece to my jewelry box, but also learning about vintage and antique jewelry from an expert!
Cat charms are so hard to find and rarely as lovely as this one is! I love the oval shape of the piece and the very natural texture. It’s also cat approved!
