Gold Georgian Period Hair Ring Dated 1798 & Inscribed

Jewelry : Antique : Fine : Georgian

 

Likely the finest Georgian Period Mourning hair ring I have ever come across in this museum quality

example. The ring is solid gold likely 14kt. or 18kt. gold and is a size 7 to 8. The exquisite engraving on the inside reads; Harriot Blundstone O.P. 3rd of August 1798. Both shanks of the ring have a sumptuous blue enamel Egyptian design that gives the ring incredible balance and debonair.

The glass dome secures a small lock of carefully woven blonde hair.

You would be hard pressed to find an equal in this ring.

Thank you for your interest and consideration. We appreciate you.
