Did you ever lay eyes on such a wonderfully detailed and beautiful mourning ring.

I was so excited for this piece to arrive being a lover of mourning jewels and it does not disappoint, everything about it is a work of art.

It features a rich 18ct yellow gold band, fully hallmarked and decorated with black enamel depicting the words in Memory Of around the band, the shoulders are raised with small square mounts, finely enameled and each set with a small pearl.

The face is not just beautifully designed it is also a hinged locket face, opening up much like the old infamous poison ring design, enclosing two locks of finely woven hair.

The front of the locker face is decorated with black enamel and set with four lustrous, plump split pearls with a diamond point to the centre to create a forget me not flower.

It is engraved to the back of the face with a personslised inscription and dated 1877.

This is a genuine antique gem of a ring, filled with sentiment and beauty, incredibly well made and well kept, it comes in the original ring box too!
