Description

This rich solid nine-carat gold and enamel ring features a black hardstone, likely sardonyx, carved into a traditional forget-me-not design - in the Victorian language of flowers the forget-me-not stands for remembrance, true love and loyalty, a powerful reminder of a love lost.

The outside of the shank is inscribed by hand in a lovely sloping cursive: "Thomas Clarke born March 23 1799 died Feb 18 1881" - a very good age for a Victorian gentleman, when the average lifespan was around 45 for men.

Fully hallmarked for Birmingham nine-carat gold with the date letter W (1871) and makers mark FW.

The ring is in very good antique condition with normal surface wear and a little enamel loss.

Size: T (UK), approximately 9.5 (US). The face of the ring measures approx 1.1 x 1cm.

Weight: 1.9g.

FREE INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING!

Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.
