Antique Amethyst Intaglio Ring in 18 Carat Gold; Circa 1900

A striking and substantial antique ring dating to the early 1900’s. Set at its heart is an oval amethyst intaglio, finely carved with the profile of a Roman style individual profile.

The amethyst itself is particularly beautiful, showing natural banding in a spectrum of lilacs and purples that shift in tone as the light moves across the stone. This depth of colour enhances the carving, giving the figure a striking sense of character and presence.

The gemstone sits securely in a robust 18 carat gold setting, crafted with weight and quality in mind – a bold yet elegant mount that perfectly complements the commanding subject of the intaglio. Its feels reassuringly heavy weight in the hand. 

An evocative piece of antique jewellery that carries with it a sense of history, artistry, and timeless style.
