A gorgeous antique Victorian snake ring, circa 1880.
The snake is set with an old cut diamond ‘brain’ and further decorated with garnet gemstone eyes. The coiled body is engraved and the tail wraps around itself. The ring is crafted in 18K gold.
Snake jewellery, with its sinuous beauty and timeless mystique, has been a symbol of fascination and intrigue for centuries. However the snake motif had a strong resurgence in Victorian and Edwardian jewellery ever since Prince Albert bought Queen Victoria a snake engagement ring with an emerald (her birthstone) embedded into it. The Victorians associated the snake motif with eternal love and it has been a popular ever since.
UK size K 1/2, US size 5.5
The ring weighs 2.53 grams and the ring measures 2mm across at the back. The outer band is stamped with a French ‘weevil’ import mark to indicate that it was crafted in 18K gold. It remains in great condition despite its significant age.
