Vintage Australian My Valentine Sapphire Band, c.1959–1970 9Ct Yellow Gold

A beautifully nostalgic Australian “My Valentine” ring in warm 9ct gold, dating to the late 1950s through to the 1960s.

Set with three vivid blue sapphires in classic star settings, this piece captures that distinctly mid-century romantic aesthetic — practical enough for everyday wear, yet still sentimental and softly decorative. The engraved starburst patterning across the band gives the ring a dreamy, almost celestial quality that feels unmistakably vintage.

Inside the band, the original MY VALENTINE stamp remains visible alongside the 9ct gold mark and hand-etched jeweller’s notation — little traces of the ring’s long life and story.

These Australian sweetheart bands were often gifted as promise rings, anniversary bands or young love tokens, making them deeply evocative pieces of jewellery history.
