Victorian 15ct Gold & Carnelian Shield Shaped Signet Ring

876T
371 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A good looking 15ct gold signet ring that was made in Birmingham in 1891.  It has been set with a shield shaped carnelian that can be engraved if wanted with a crest or monogram. The shoulders are particularly unusual as they feature a stylised vine with bunches of grapes.  They symbolise abundance, fertility and good luck.

The Details
Ollys Pick

A favourite signet ring as I love the ornate detail on the shank.
