Another slice of history saved from the scrap heap! This absolutely beautiful ring is by Early Australian company Aronson & Co. It features star set synthetic rubies and old rosecut diamonds and features their early hallmarks of the flag and the start of the 15ct Hallmark. It looks to have had a new shank at some stage in its life as there are some line from reshank and it likely lost some of the hallmarks then. Aronson and Co historically where one of the original founding members in the Victorian Jewellers association (please see advertising pictures) with over 13 pages dedicated to their history in my reference book when some companies only have a small paragraph it's safe to say they were very important. The company took advantage of the gold discoveries in Vic 1851 and built a considerable manufacturing business in the late 1800s and soon had businesses in Melb, London, Queensland, Sydney.
