Regency 15ct Gold Natural Split Pearl & Carved Banded Onyx Forget me Not Ring

611S
947 Admirers

This is a charming 15ct gold ring that was made circa 1830. It has been set with graded split pearls in a cluster design with a further three pearls each set on the bifurcated shoulders. in the centre is a sweet carved banded onyx forget me not flower. This ring is technically a mourning ring that would have been worn by someone in memory of a loved one. The pearls represent “Tears” and the Forget me not is self explanatory. Nowadays these early rings are very collectable as not only are they decorative to wear but are amazing survivals of a bygone period.
