About the Item

A captivating antique snake ring from the late Victorian era (circa 1880–1900), featuring a beautifully sculpted knotted serpent in solid 18k gold, its head set with two ruby eyes. Symbolizing eternity, wisdom, and everlasting love, the snake motif was a favorite of the Victorian period and remains a timeless emblem of devotion and transformation. The inside of the band is engraved with the initials “ACM,” adding a layer of mystery and personal history to this romantic piece. The face of the ring measures approximately 0.6 inches from north to south and is currently a size 11. The gold has been professionally verified using XRF (X-ray fluorescence) analysis and confirmed with jeweler’s acid testing, authenticating its 18k gold composition. In excellent antique condition, this ring is an exquisite example of Victorian symbolism and craftsmanship, perfectly suited for the collector who values both artistry and meaning.
