in 10k Gold
$ 1,700.00
* * SOLD * *
An extra-wide Victorian era cigar band ring (11.4 mm), fabricated in 10k rose gold and hand-engraved with a beautiful sparrow. This sparrow is captured, mid-song, perched amid sprays of foliage and charming five-petaled flowers. The long, expressive strokes that define our bird friend's wings and tail, animating him by implying movement, are a testament to the engraver's skill. We love the sweetness of this engraved image, along with its graphic (almost tattoo-style) quality. This would make a wonderful wedding band.

Notes
There is an un-engraved area at the base of the ring shank— this undecorated area makes resizing possible. This ring has never been resized, but because this it was fabricated (not cast) there is a mark on the inside of the ring, where the ends were originally joined.
