Written by Olly Gerrish

A sweet coily snake ring that was most likely made in Austria around 1900-1910. The snake’s head has been set with a rose diamond and his body has been cross hatched engraved. It wraps around the finger and the tail flicks under the head. Snake rings were very popular in the GeorgianVictorian and Edwardian periods as they represented “Eternal love and wisdom”.
