Victorian 18ct Gold Engraved Snake Ring set with Diamond & Ruby Eyes

839Y
40 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

An exceptional well modelled heavy gauge 18ct gold coiled snake ring that was made circa 1880. It has been finely engraved with scales and coils around the finger beautifully. It has been set with a bright transition cut diamond in it’s head and has small rubies in it’s eyes. It is a wonderful chunky yet classic look when worn.

The snake traditionally symbolises eternal love and is a lovely sentiment to wear on one’s finger either as an engagement ring or a dress ring.

This ring can be sized up but please note that there will be an extra charge due to the wide double band and the engraving.
