Georgian Gold & Carved Coral Head Ring

683A
Written by Olly Gerrish

This is a pretty late Georgian ring from the Grand Tour period, circa 1820, when it was highly fashionable to visit places such as Naples and bring back a trinket. The coral is of course Neapolitan coral, which was sought after as it had such a good natural colour. The classical head is well carved, and typical of the subject matter used.
