This antique jewel has been created in 9 carat gold and conceals one of the most poignant details. A tiny lock of the lost loved one’s hair, preserved within a hidden compartment beneath the front of the ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe ring is centred with a beautiful oval bullseye agate, its naturally concentric bands creating the distinctive appearance that gives the stone its name. At its centre sits a single diamond, adding a tiny point of sparkle against the rich glowing agate. Surrounding the stone is a beautifully worked border with the inscription ‘IN MEMORY OF’. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eBeneath the front is a concealed locket compartment, still holding a small lock of fine blond hair belonging to the person being mourned. To find the original keepsake still preserved within the ring after all these years is incredibly touching, offering a connection to the person for whom this jewel was originally created.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is something particularly moving about mourning jewellery that has retained its original contents. This is not simply a Victorian ring, but a tiny vessel of remembrance keeping someone’s memory close.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDETAILS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eERA\u003c\/strong\u003e: Victorian \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHALLMARKS\u003c\/strong\u003e: Marked '9ct' \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINGER SIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e i (indigo) (UK\/AU) 4.5 (US)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWEIGHT\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 grams approximately.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONDITION:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is in lovely antique condition with a fine patina across the gold, diamond, enamel and aa few nibbles to the gate. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003ePlease note the antique box is for display only \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you have any questions about this or any other piece please do not hesitate to ask \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Please feel free to take a look at all photographs and condition before committing to buy.
