Victorian 18ct Gold, Black Enamel & Rose Diamond Star Mourning Ring

306X
80 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

An unusual 18ct gold mourning ring that was assayed in London in 1870. The top is composed of a star set with a rose diamond with six small rose diamonds around it on a black enamel ground.  The shoulders are an ornate design with further black enamel.  There is a glazed locket to the reverse and engraved on the inside of the fluted shank is “Thomas Oakley died july 30th october 1870 aged 64”

It sits low on the finger and would make a perfect dress ring.
