Vintage, 9ct Gold Ruby eyed Snake Ring

This is such a pretty snake ring. Crafted in a rich 9ct gold, the shank coils around the finger comfortably and gives good finger coverage. The ring is a UK size M 1/2, which is a US size 6 1/2, and it weighs 1.4g

The snake's head has ornate engravings which gives some lovely texture to the piece and it features two bright ruby eyes. It measures 18mm x 12mm and remains in excellent condition. It is fully hallmarked for 9ct Gold, Birmingham and 1989. 

A fashionable Victorian symbol of eternal love, snakes have maintained their popularity since Prince Albert gave Queen Victoria a snake enggement ring in the 1800s. Since that time, snakes on jewellery have symbolized eternity and everlasting love.
