Georgian 18ct Gold & Foiled Amethyst Ring

116R
592 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

This is a wonderful late Georgian ring that was made circa 1820. It has repoussé work featuring roses and leaves on the shoulders. Repoussé refers to a metalworking technique in which a malleable metal is shaped by hammering from the reverse side to create a design in low relief. This is a common design in Georgian pieces of jewellery and is highly sought after. It has been set with a cushion cut pale amethyst that has been foiled on the reverse to give it more translucence. The whole effect is subtly beautiful. This ring is a size S and cannot be resized.
