I don't think so. This ring was formerly in Albion Art Collection, in Japan. Therefore, this ring had probably been sold from the Savoy family earlier. The ring still appears on Albion's website: http://www.albionart.com/period/romanticism/ (NB: the pair or rectangular diamond brooches visible on the link above, immediately next to the ruby ring, are also Savoy heirlooms) Nevertheless, Albion Art Collection does not own all of their items, but also displays items which are loaned to them.
