FAQs

Snake motifs gained immense popularity during the Victorian era after Prince Albert presented Queen Victoria with an engagement ring featuring a snake set with an emerald, symbolising eternal love and wisdom.

These rings were typically crafted from high-karat yellow or rose gold, often 18ct, and frequently incorporated gemstones such as rubies, diamonds, sapphires, and garnets to represent the eyes of the serpent.

Authentic pieces often exhibit hand-engraved details, old-cut diamonds, natural unheated gemstones, and traditional British hallmarking appropriate to the period of manufacture.

Such a distinctive piece serves as a striking standalone statement or can be stacked with minimalist modern gold bands to create a textured, historically rich contrast.

Regular cleaning should involve soft polishing cloths specifically designed for precious metals, avoiding harsh ultrasonic cleaners which can damage delicate settings and softer gemstones.
