Gypsy rings were incredibly popular during the late Victorian era, particularly between 1885 and 1900. This was an aesthetic period in jewellery design, and jewellers favoured diamonds and bright gemstones: sapphires, tourmaline and emerald were especially popular.

Initially favoured by men because of their robust structure, gypsy rings later became widely worn by women due to their timeless elegance.
