Pieces like this do not come along very often, so if you are fan of Vintique hand carved 18ct Gold, this amazing treasure is for you.
Engraved with a leaf design that runs in its entirety around the ring, this ring was masterfully created so that the pattern is consistent. If you look in the gaps, you can actually see where each section was hand carved out. The pattern is only showing minimal signs of wear - and for a ring that will be at least 70 years old, this piece has been treasured and not worn much.
The hallmark "18ct" fits onto the back of one of the leaves. This hallmark is what we commonly associate with Early Australian and NZ pieces, by smaller jewellers who did not have their own hallmark. Given the Arts and Crafts, and Art Nouveau movements were all about the independent jeweller and hand making pieces that incorporated natural imagery, this piece ticks all the boxes.
Truly a masterpiece of jewellery carving.

FAQ
Sizing
What do we mean when we say a ring is "sizeable"? Well, most standard rings can be made bigger or smaller by up to three letter sizes. If we say the item is "moderately sizeable", this usually means about 1 size, and if we say it is "not sizeable" or that "sizing is not recommended" it will be due to the construction - it could be age related, pattern related, have enamel etc.
We can happily help with sizing of rings, so please do get it touch if we can give you a quote.
