Victorian 15ct Gold Fede Ring Dated 1849

606T
Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

The fede ring has a long history dating back to antiquity. The major hallmark of this type of ring is the motif of two hands traditionally one female and the other male, clasped together. Known from the original Italian “mani in fede” (hands in faith and trust), this style of ring was popular during the Renaissance and given as a token of betrothal. This 15ct gold ring dates from 1849 as it has been engraved inside the shank with the date and the initials M.R. A charming and rare ring.
