Victorian 18ct Gold & Black Enamel Mourning Ring

343X
200 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

I always love the quality of Victorian mourning rings and this ring is an excellent example. It is heavy gauge 18ct gold and has been enamelled in black enamel with the words “In memory of” between raised ornate gold work.Inside the ring is engraved “John Springett died November 23rd 1869”. John Springett was born in 1791, in Wouldham, Kent, England, United Kingdom, his father, William Springett, was 36 and his mother, Elizabeth Usborne, was 24. He died on 23 November 1869, in East Farleigh, Kent, England, United Kingdom, at the age of 78, and was buried in East Farleigh, Kent. The surname Springett originated in Essex and Kent and is the topographic name for someone who lived by a plantation of young trees, a copse.

Please note that this ring cannot be sized.
