Edwardian 9ct Gold Keeper Ring with Hearts Motif

651R
Written by Olly Gerrish

A really pretty 9ct gold ring that was made in Chester in 1917. It is known as a “Keeper ring”. The tradition of giving a keeper ring is said to have represented the idea that the receiver was worth “keeping.” The “You are a keeper” sentiment attached to these rings makes them a popular choice today as a unique wedding ring, engagement ring, eternity ring, and even an anniversary band. This particular ring is composed of slanting repousee decoration with plain hearts and is in lovely condition
