A wonderful 1980s vintage ruby and diamond three-stone ring, centred with an oval-cut natural ruby weighing approximately 0.75 carats. The ruby displays a vibrant deep crimson-red hue with good saturation, set between two brilliant-cut diamonds with an estimated total weight of 0.30 carats.

Crafted in 18ct gold and hallmarked in London, 1987, the ring has a classic low-profile setting, and the ring face offers an elegant spread across the finger while remaining highly wearable. A well-proportioned ruby and diamond trilogy ring with timeless appeal, it would make a lovely engagement ring, anniversary piece, or meaningful everyday ring.

One happy fiancee!

Where do I start... First of all I now have one happy fiancee who is absolutely obsessed with the ring. It is absolutely gorgeous and we couldn't be happier. The process was so easy and accommodating. I needed the ring to be delivered on a specific date to ensure it is received without spoiling the surprise and Bella was very accommodating in making this happen. Could not be happier!

Wonderful from start to finish

Can not recommend Ellibelle enough. The ring was bought, resized and arrived within a week of purchase. The communication through this process was excellent. The ring arrived and it was perfect without any sign it had been resized. Thank you.

Worth every penny!

As soon as I came across the listing on Ellibelle Jewellery I just KNEW this ring was ✨️the one✨️! I made sure to secure it as soon as possible knowing it was one of a kind! I haven't been able to stop admiring it since it arrived! I feel so incredibly lucky to call it my own and it'll be cherished forever!

Requested information was promptly provided and delivery was next day recorded delivery before 1pm. A wonderful selection of quality rings to choose from. My ring is beautiful and I look forward to wearing it often.

The ring i purchased was lovely, exactly as pictured/described. Bella was extremely helpful letting me know how long resizing would take and allowed me to cancel it for the ring to arrive in time 10/10 customer service. would use this company again!

So many beautiful rings - hard to choose. I wanted the colour of the ocean and that is what I got in this gorgeous ring. Took me a while to commit but great advice from Lee on the quality of the ring and sizing. Delivered safely and beautifully packaged too.

Beautiful Aquamarine and Diamond Ring

After much deliberation, I ordered the aquamarine and diamond ring and I am thrilled with my purchase. Initially concerned about making such a big purchase online, Bella was highly responsive to my queries and the ring arrived quickly and beautifully packaged. The ring is even more stunning than the website photos. Very happy with the transaction and would buy from Elliebelle again. 5 stars

I can only say that I had a wonderful experience purchasing my beautiful Ceylon sapphire and diamond ring.I had never made such a big purchase online, so rang Lee for advice. He was so friendly and knowledgeable and made me feel so at ease. Thank you so much Lee if I can afford another purchase it will be with yourself and Ellie! Thank you.

The shopping experience for my ring was excellent from the very first minute that I contacted the shop from both Lee and Bella. I have been looking for a long time for the perfect ring. I would highly recommend them and I hope to more in the future.

I've been looking at engagement rings for years hoping I'll find 'the one' for me, and I finally found it with this one. Now, I'm in a relationship with a wonderful man but I told him straight up that this was to me from myself. He can get a ring another time if he wants, but this one is mine to get. He loves that I love it so much. I can't wait to (hopefully) write another review here some day but for now I'll enjoy the h*ll out of this ring 😍

A real pleasure to do business with and my wife is over the moon with her 40th wedding anniversary ring.
Thank you Bella and Lee for all your assistance in this purchase.
Cheers Adrian.

The perfect ring, for a perfect engagement

My partner and I endured three failed cycles of IVF before falling with our beautiful daughter, who was born two weeks early on 30th April, making her a diamond baby.

I went in search of an engagement ring that combined diamonds with my partners birthstone (Zircon - December). I stumbled across Ellibelle, who had an absolutely gorgeous antique (Circa 1920s) ring, which was unfortunately above my budget.

I continued to save for a few months until I was lucky enough that it went into their sale. I contacted Ellibelle and explained the significance of the ring and why I had chosen it, but that I couldn't afford it yet. Bella was so polite and helpful, and very kindly offered to hold the ring (at sale price) with a 10% deposit, until such a time that I could afford to purchase it in full.

Bella liaised with their jeweller to determine what size the ring would be if it had its sizing beads removed from the band. It turned out that it was my partners exact size, it was meant to be! Bella even arranged for some photos to be sent of the ring being sized, before and after the work was carried out. The sizing beads were removed impeccably (you can't even tell it used to have them) and delivery was scheduled for a day I knew my partner was out the house.

I proposed on the morning of my partners first ever Mothers Day, which was accepted through some very happy tears. Its a moment we'll remember forever.
When I opened the ring-box, the ring made her audibly gasp.

The level of personal service and care that Bella provided from start to finish was absolutely incredible, I really can't thank her enough. If you're looking for beautiful one-off pieces and a customer experience miles above that of the high-street, I honestly cannot recommend Ellibelle enough.

Thank you so much, every time the ring sparkles on my partners finger it makes me smile.

Edwardian 18 ct yellow gold diamond ring

We were looking for something extra special to commemorate our 50th anniversary and we fell in love with this very special ring! We loved that it was 118 years old and we hope to add lots more joy to its story!
The ring was described perfectly online and the pictures were spot on. Everything was handled-resizing to shipping internationally, with updates from Ellibelle.
We highly recommend Ellibelle Jewelry!

Absolutely over the moon with my ring that was a treat to myself. It was delivered super fast and is even nicer than it looked online.
I will definitely buy from Ellibelle again in the future.

I couldn’t be happier with my experience buying an engagement ring from Ellibelle. From the moment I browsed their collection, I was struck by the uniqueness of each piece. The ring I chose is nothing short of stunning! Thank you!

My fiancé purchased the most beautiful orange sapphire and diamond ring and said the process of getting it resized was so simple. It fits me perfectly and he couldn't have chosen a more unique and perfect ring. The packaging and attention to detail was great. I've since purchased the valuation certificate and that was a breeze too. Thanks so much!

I ordered a ring for my daughter’s 50th birthday. .When it arrived I was absolutely delighted. It is beautiful. The customer service is first class and delivery was quick and without any problems at all. Really recommend. Wonderful.

40

Well, where do I start? My eldest daughter coming up to 40 wanted money for a special ring…she sent me a link from Ellebelle saying this is the one! I bought it secretly for her within minutes….she is called Ellen and we call her Elliebel …four rings in one for four decades….was made in the 1980’s as she was…each of the four rings represented the birth stones of her, her husband and two boys….it was always meant for my Ellen…she was gutted when it had sold ( to me! ) I packed and wrapped 40 little presents for her to open with this being the last, and best one…an amazing ring to fit into her life…and yes! It fitted perfectly of course….thankyou Elliibelle for an amazing experience.

I am over the moon with this stunning ring, it’s everything I hoped and even more, fabulous quality and enviable sparkle, and a perfect fit.
Bella provided exceptional customer service and I couldn’t be happier, highly recommend and will likely be back in the future.

Ellibelle have gone above and beyond to ensure we are happy. The customer service has been fantastic. We are so happy. Thank you again.

My husband bought me the most beautiful sapphire and diamond cluster ring for our wedding anniversary from Ellibelle Jewellery. It is stunning and brought me to tears! I would highly recommend this company. Good customer service and lovely presentation. Why buy new when you can buy vintage?

Fabulous service, beautiful ring and a delighted fiancée. Highly recommended.
