    • A fine antique English snake ring, fully hallmarked for London 1902 and crafted in 18K gold.

      The ring is formed as a coiled serpent, its body wrapping around the finger in three softly modelled bands. The head is set with a small blue sapphire and diamond, positioned like jewelled markings upon the serpent’s head.
      Snake jewellery remained highly fashionable into the Edwardian period, having become closely associated with eternity, devotion and enduring love during the Victorian era.

      This example has a particularly clean, wearable design, with the serpent’s head emerging naturally from the layered gold body rather than sitting prominently above it.

      Details:
      UK size J½ / US size 5
      Weight: 2.14g
      Approx. 4mm wide
      Very good antique condition
