Vintage Bloodstone Intaglio Ring

A signet ring crafted in 18K gold, hallmarked in Birmingham, England in 1956.

This vintage piece is set with a finely carved bloodstone intaglio, depicting a family crest of a huntsman blowing a horn—a unusual motif adopted by various families including those with the ‘Clark’ surname. The crest would have formed the uppermost part of a family coat of arms, and it is commonly displayed alone on smaller jewellery items.

The bloodstone intaglio, engraved in negative, would have served as a personal seal, imprinting the family crest onto wax for sealing important documents. The heliotrope bloodstone showcases striking red speckles against a deep green background, providing a high contrast that accentuates its detail. Bloodstone, historically known as the "stone of courage," was worn by warriors for protection and to symbolise strength in battle; it’s also the birthstone for March.

The ring, weighing 7.7 grams, is a UK size T (US size 9.5). The intaglio measures 10mm by 12mm, while the band tapers to 3mm at the back, ensuring a comfortable fit. A classic example of mid-century craftsmanship combined with a timeless symbol of heritage.

中古（vintage）珠宝的时代风格兼收并蓄，将过往时代的元素与当代设计相融合，采用树脂等独特材料以及各种色彩鲜艳的宝石。

中古珠宝涵盖 20 世纪 40 年代至世纪之交的风格，是为收藏增添个性的热门之选。这一时期复兴了装饰艺术（Art Deco）与维多利亚时期等既往风格，同时使用塑料和树脂等独特材料。从世纪中叶的华美，到 70 与 80 年代常带幽默感的设计，中古珠宝蕴含着丰富的历史与个性，值得细细探索与品味。
