Antique 15ct Gold Heavy Sardonyx Signet Ring 1867 | Size UK R.5
Antique 15ct Gold Heavy Sardonyx Signet Ring 1867 | Size UK R.5
This ring makes my heart skip a beat, and I wish so much that it was in my size. A beautiful, heavy piece crafted from that warm, dusky 15ct gold we so love. It has beautiful, soft detailing to the shoulders which support a round Sardonyx stone.
The ring is a size UK R.5, so is on the larger side.
The stone does have some wear and a slight nibble on one side, but this ring is from the late 1800's (well over 100 years old!) so if anything, it just goes to show how loved and worn this ring must have been by its previous caretakers.

Condition
Condition
All our jewellery is pre-loved, vintage or antique, which, by definition, is second-hand. It is not new. It has been worn for years, decades and in some cases a century or more. Most items will show signs of wear in line with their age and history, such as scuffs, scratches or dents. This should be expected and is part of the charm of second-hand jewellery. When describing our pieces we will call out any noticeable imperfections in the description and photos, please be sure to study them carefully before making a purchase 🖤

Packaging
Packaging
We try to align our small business with the sustainability of buying pre-loved, vintage and antique pieces.
As some of you may remember, for a long while we packaged pieces in small aluminium tins that you can keep and reuse. This was to avoid as much packaging waste as possible. For various reasons, we now send items in branded cardboard jewellery boxes, carefully packaged in tissue paper and shipping boxes. These are recyclable, so we kindly ask you, where possible, to recycle or re-use as much of our packaging as possible ♽
If you would prefer to receive your piece in an aluminium tin then please do feel free to leave a note when you check out and we will do our best to accommodate.
We do sometimes have new and second-hand jewellery boxes available if you prefer. These will always be in an excellent second-hand condition. Please see our other products page for availability.
Please note: any boxes featured in product photos are props only and are not included in the listing for sale unless otherwise stated.

Resizing & Alterations
Resizing & Alterations
For pieces that can be resized, whilst we can offer a resizing and alternations service, we do recommend that you carry this out with your local jeweller as this will always ensure you are happy with the alteration and size.
If you would still like us to assist, please feel free to contact us before purchasing so that we can provide an accurate quote.
Please note we cannot offer refunds for pieces that have been altered or resized.
