Victorian Crescent Moons & Star Intaglio Signet Ring
in 18k Gold
$ 4,500.00
* * SOLD * *
A large scale, Victorian era signet ring, modeled in 18k yello gold, whose long, oval face is emblazoned with a heraldic shield. Atop a field of fine horizontal stripes, a bend, decorated with two crescent moons and a star, crosses the face of this shield. This weighty antique ring has the classic signet profile, with broad sides that taper gradually toward the base of the ring shank. It bears two french hallmarks— an eagles head (denoting 18k purity), and a partly obscured maker's cartouche. We love this ring for its large scale, its clean lines, and for the bold, graphic quality of its intaglio! This wardrobe hero is perfect for daily wear.
