An unusual and sculptural antique gold ring, dating to around 1900, featuring a naturally occurring mined gold nugget mounted as the central ornament. The ring is crafted in 21K gold and bears a French control stamp; the nugget itself is of even higher purity, estimated at approximately 22K.The nugget measures 18 × 9mm and retains its original unaltered form; irregular, textured, and richly organic, with subtle contouring and natural hollows from its formation. Such nuggets were typically discovered during major gold rush periods of the 19th century, particularly in Alaska, California, and Australia, and were often kept as souvenirs or mounted into jewellery as symbols of prosperity or remembrance.The hoop is plain, of solid round-section gold, and sized at UK K½ / US 5.5. The ring weighs 4.34g in total. The nugget is well secured and unpolished.
