A stunning antique 15ct gold mourning ring, set with split pearls and imbedded with panels of hair-work.

The white pearls, a common Victorian symbol of purity (and tears,) contrast beautifully with the black enamel, emblematic of Victorian sentimental mourning jewellery.

The ring is inlaid with plaited hair, a Victorian custom by which to remember the dead.

With UK Chester hallmarks for 15ct gold to the inside, 1897, along with a maker's mark.

This ring is in really nice, antique condition, though please note there is one panel of hair missing to the back of the band. Please be sure to see all of the photographs.

The band measures approximately 6mm wide (at the widest.)

Ring Size:
UK Size - P
US Size - 7 1/2

Weight - 2.7 grams
