Victorian 15ct Gold Signet Ring with Shield Motif set with a Carnelian

701U
190 Admirers Rare Find

An unusual 15ct gold ring that was made circa 1880. It has been claw set with a shield shaped carnelian that has been cut in such a way with the paler colour on top so that an engraver could carve an intaglio through to the deeper red colour beneath. The shoulders are highly ornate with engraved and stipple work. A cool ring that would be sure to attract attention when worn.
