SOLD Silver Baby Rattle and Teething Ring With Coral, Edwardian

Antiques : Silver, Sterling : Baby Rattle, Teething Ring, With Coral, Edwardian

 

This is one of the beautiful, and very collectible, teething rings. The Victorian and Edwardian babies were certainly outfitted well! This teething ring has an ivory ring, four silver bells, and a coral piece for good luck, as the Victorians and Edwardians believed that coral brought good luck. It is in excellent condition. From the top of the ring to the bottom of the coral, this piece measures 3 and 5/8 inches long. The hallmarks declare that the silver is British Sterling, minted in Birmingham, in the year 1907. This would be a great piece to add to a collection, or a wonderful gift for the baby who has everything!
