Heavy Vintage 18ct Gold Signet Ring | Size UK J.5
Heavy Vintage 18ct Gold Signet Ring | Size UK J.5
I love a chunkier ring as you probably know. And in 18ct? Hold me back! While this ring exudes simplicity, I haven't come across another one quite like it. It is heavy but really elegant at the same time. The shape is just stunning and the feel of it against the finger ... SO smooth! I love how the edges of the face of the ring are raised up from the surface of the finger, meaning it doesn't feel suffocating or too much to wear given its spread. It has started to accumulate a lovely patina over the years, there are a few light scuffs in places (see photos), but this doesn't detract from the beauty of the ring in my opinion.Â
Gold: 18ctÂ
Size: UK J.5
Weight: 7.8g
Hallmarks: Markers Mark: H.G&S for Henry Griffiths & Son. Purity: Crown 18 for 18ct. Assay: Anchor for Birmingham. Date Letter: W for 1946.
Condition: There are some scuffs to the surface of the ring in keeping with age (see photos). While I don't polish rings as standard so as not to take away from the vintage or antique aesthetic, these could be polished out if you prefer (please contact me to discuss) but note that this will mean any patina that has built up over the years will be lost.
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.
