A fine 19th century 18ct gold snake ring.
The head of the snake is set with an old cut diamond and a turquoise cabochon.
Two distinct snakes entwine in this ring - a symbol of union and love.
Originally set with a damaged garnet we replaced the broken stone with a turquoise cabochon to create a contemporary look.

The old cut diamond weighs approximately 0.45cts.
Stamped and tested as 18ct gold.
Nice clean condition - the diamond has a tiny chip at the tip of the pear. The old cut diamond is nice and clean and sparkles beautifully (the close up photo beneath the loupe is unedited - the white glow is a reflection from the diamond). Evidence of resizing to rear of the band.
