Antique 9ct Rose Gold Hardstone Cameo Ring

19th century
For Sale by Corvidae Antique
Description

We don't know the identity of this noble chap but he is beautifully carved atop this magnificent antique ring.

The carved hardstone plaque, likely agate, is set into a high rose gold mount set on a yellow gold shank with bifurcated shoulders. The plain but elegant setting really lets the cameo speak for itself.

While this handsome piece may originally have been destined for a Victorian or Georgian gentleman's pinky, it makes an equally stunning 21st-century cocktail ring!

In excellent antique condition; there are no chips, cracks or damage.

Stamped 9CT inside the shank.

Size: S (UK), 9 (US).

The cameo measures 1.6 x 2cm. The band is 3mm wide at the back and the face of the ring sits around 8mm above the finger.

Weight: 6.7g.

Declaration

Corvidae Antique has dated this Hardstone Cameo Gold Ring to the Victorian era.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A hardstone cameo ring features a relief carving executed in layered semi-precious stone, such as onyx or agate, where the background and foreground display contrasting natural colours.

Antique cameo rings were commonly crafted using carved layered stones such as agate, onyx, or sardonyx, as well as shell, set into mounts made of rose gold, yellow gold, or silver.

Authentic hardstone cameos show precision tool marks under magnification, feel cool to the touch, feature distinct natural colour banding, and exhibit detailed classical profile engraving rather than molded seams.

An antique cameo ring serves as a focal statement piece that can be worn alongside modern minimalist jewellery or stacked with plain gold bands for a tailored contemporary look.

Clean the ring gently using warm water, mild soap, and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding ultrasonic cleaners, harsh chemicals, or extreme temperature shifts that could fracture the natural stone.
