She has so much depth - you can look straight down into that blue and keep falling. Against the warm gold it is the kind of color pairing that never, ever goes out of style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLook at how she is set: a classic buttercup setting, where curved golden petals cup the stone like the flower she is named after, lifting her right up into the light so she sparkles from every angle. The buttercup was the great romance of late Victorian and Edwardian setting work, and this ring carries it straight into the 1920s. Original buttercups from the setting's own era, with hand cut petals and full hallmarks, are what collectors hunt for - I have written the whole story here: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.oldmineshop.com\/blogs\/journal\/what-is-a-buttercup-setting\"\u003eWhat Is a Buttercup Setting?\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe carries her full suite of Swedish hallmarks inside the band - maker, city and the date letter for 1922.
