A beautifully characterful antique signet ring dating to 1919. Created in warm 9 carat rose gold and designed in a timeless cushion shaped signet profile. The face of the ring is deeply and confidently engraved with the letter “M” in a Gothic font, giving the piece a strong presence that feels entirely of its era.
What makes this ring especially evocative is the survival of its original handwritten tag, likely kept by a previous owner. The note reads: “Doris’s sister – Muriel Slipper’s signet ring.”
This small but deeply personal detail offers a rare glimpse into the ring’s lived history, transforming it from a beautiful object into a tangible family keepsake passed through generations. Such provenance is unusual to have and adds a subtle layer of sentiment to the piece.
With its rich rose gold tone, classic proportions, and meaningful engraving, this signet ring is a wonderful example of early 20th century jewellery. Understated, personal, and made to last. A truly special heirloom ring, perfect for those drawn to antique jewellery with soul, story, and human connection
