Georgian 15ct Gold, Turquoise & Natural Split Pearl Ring

171H
576 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A lovely late Georgian ring that was made circa 1800-1820. It is set with turquoise and natural split pearls. The shank is a floral design using the Repoussé technique in which a malleable metal is ornamented or shaped by hammering from the reverse side to create a design in low relief. The turquoise means “forget me not” after the flower of the same name and the pearls are for tears so this ring was a memorial ring.
