Georgian 9ct Gold Rebus Ring set with a Carnelian

703U
280 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A fascinating 9ct gold ring that was made circa 1830. It has been set with a carnelian with a carved intaglio of an eye, a fly and a tree. It is a rebus and I think it means “I fly up” or “I fly high”.  The top was made circa 1830 and the shank is a later  addition.
