About the Item

This extraordinary Victorian snake ring captures the mystique, symbolism, and craftsmanship that defined late-19th-century English jewelry. At its heart lies a glowing oval ruby of approximately 0.45 carat, its vivid hue representing passion, devotion, and eternal love—sentiments deeply cherished during the Victorian era. Curving gracefully around the finger, the serpent motif embodies protection and endless loyalty, a design made iconic when Queen Victoria herself popularized snake jewels as symbols of everlasting commitment. Set along the sinuous form of the serpent are twenty old mine and single cut diamonds, their soft antique sparkle illuminating the ring with a romantic, candlelit glow. Each stone was hand-cut over a century ago, lending the piece a rare historical texture and a distinctly Victorian charm. Crafted in warm 18k yellow gold and stamped with authentic English hallmarks, the ring carries the unmistakable presence of a cherished heirloom, rich with sentiment and artistry. With its symbolic meaning, captivating ruby, and graceful diamond-studded form, this ring is a treasure for collectors and romantics alike—an exquisite reminder of a bygone era where jewelry told stories of love, loyalty, and legacy.
