Early Georgian Silver Fede Ring

527S/PR
760 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

It is hard to date this silver ring but I would say it was made circa 1700. It is a charming take on a fede ring with clasped hands. This style of ring goes back to Roman times if not before. It is known as a “fede” ring which is a design of ring in which two hands meet and are clasped in friendship, love or betrothal. It became prominent in the medieval period from the 12th century onwards and in more modern times. The name fede is from the Italian phrase “mani in fede” or “hands clasped in faith”.
