Steeped in history, this amazingly Intaglio ring is a luxurious jewel of buttery deep gold! We adore the defined and detailed intaglio image which has been expertly carved by hand in sardonyx.
At the centre of the piece is a hand carved intaglio. The carving is of a very detailed stag in full side profile in movement. So much attention has been giving to create a life like image, there is even a few blades of grass at the bottom.
The intaglio here is a sardonyx stone so we have a contrast to the carved surface and the top of the stone. This lends itself perfectly as its complemented by the warm 15 carat rose gold setting.
Leading down from the intaglio we have a simple and wide flat shoulders. An understated and rich gold setting complements the grandeur of the central gemstone without drawing attention from intaglio.
Signet rings can be seen going back thousands of years, even beyond the Roman civilisation. Often used to show belonging to a community, to demonstrate family connection or as a show of status. Their popularity continues to this day in many forms.
This signet ring is a great example due to its intricate design and tactile setting of solid buttery 15 carat rose gold. This is a solid and tactile ring which would beautifully worn with your other jewels stacked up or solo for an antique treasure.
