18th Century Hardstone Cameo Ring with Diamond Detail

509U
160 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

An unusual early 18th century ring that was made circa 1720-1750. It has been set with a hard stone cameo of lady with hands clasped across her chest. Around the edge set in silver are diamond shards. In those days diamond cutting had not been perfected so diamond chips were often fashioned in to early jewels. The shank is a barley twist design and trifurcated where it meets the cameo and is a mixture of gold and silver. The back of the cameo is a shell motif. This ring could have been a devotional ring and is a rare survival of an early ring
