Antique 18ct Gold Diamond Studded Horseshoe Ring (Size R)
Antique 18ct gold ring. Set with diamond. Unmarked.
£900
Description
An antique 18ct gold horseshoe ring, with seven diamonds in square settings running along the groove of the shoe, just where the nails would sit on a real horseshoe. The shoe is raised on a gallery above split shoulders with pointed, leaf-shaped panels, so it sits up proud on the finger. Horseshoes were one of the Victorians' favourite good luck symbols and turn up all over jewellery of the period, this piece likely dates to the first 1/4 of the 20th century but takes inspiration from Victorian pieces in its design and construction. Unmarked - XRF tested to confirm 18ct throughout Head wisth - 19.7mm
