In Victorian times rings of this style were typical for engagement rings. The crowned heart was a symbol to give your loved one to say 'you are the ruler of my heart'. These beautiful antique engagement rings are very rare now, because people can't help but fall for their romantic charm.
This ring has no hallmarks, but tests as solid 9ct gold. It's a UK size Q (US size 8). The ring has perhaps been an early conversion piece, it's very unique with a nice wide band. The ring weighs 2.1 grams. The face of the ring measures 1.4 x 1 cms in size, the peridot alone measures 8 x 7 mms.
In good antique condition with minimal wear and tarnish as to be expected from a used antique item. Please see the photos.
