This stunning silver snake ring makes quite a statement! It is a double headed snake eternity ring, each snake head set with an oval turquoise stone. The snakes wrap around the finger and have, nestled between their heads for protection, a large, faceted diamond paste stone closed-back set and crimped in silver.
The sparkling stone size is 13.5x15mm mounted in a rounded belly back, typical of Georgian pieces of this era. It is a glorious ring, and we have not seen another.
Currently a size 6 – 6 ½.
English, Georgian late 1700’s.
