Regency 15ct Gold Forget Me Not Ring

207R
Written by Olly Gerrish

This is a charming ring that you can imagine a character in a Jane Austen novel wearing. It is 15ct gold and was made circa 1820-1830. It is typical of the Regency period with it’s light and pretty design. In the centre is a a carved chalcedony of a forget me not with a natural split pearl on either side. The meaning of the forget me not is clear that you must not “Forget the giver” The shoulders continue the floral leaf motif to a plain shank. On the reverse is a curved glazed locket that would have originally held a lock of hair. It is a wonderful and original ring
