DESCRIPTION (Please scroll to the bottom to view video)


This superb little ring was crafted in the late Georgian to very early Victorian era circa 1840 and is in incredible condition for her 180 plus years!

Centred with an square-cut Emerald surround by six bright and white half-pearls in the form of flower petals, all of which are set in cut down collate settings typical of the era.

Ornate split shoulders flow seamlessly to the most beautiful band we have seen in quite some time.. fully engraved with scrolling pattern which is as crisp as the day she was made almost two centuries ago.

To the reverse in the original glass compartment also in excellent condition.

Quite incredible to think this beautiful ring is in almost the condition she was first crafted in so very long ago… She is just waiting for her new caretaker to love her and hand her down through their family for another couple of centuries.
