FLORAL Double Toi et Moi Flower Band 14k Gold Antique Ring Victorian Stacker
FLORAL Double Toi et Moi Flower Band 14k Gold Antique Ring Victorian Stacker
ABOUT:
If you want to know my vibe, look at the picture of the three bands stacked together - flowers, geometry, old mine cut diamonds - I love stackable bands!
I purchased this one for my personal collection and kept it for about five seconds before realizing I have too many stackable bands : )
Found on a recent inventory trip to Texas. Linear shoulders lead to two little flowers with an engraved starburst in between. Haven't seen one like it, not sure if they are meant to be daisies, forget me nots, orange blossoms (all popular Victorian motifs) or a representation of a toi et moi / "you and me" setting with the two flowers representing the two parts of a couple. Whatever it is, I love it.
No gold hallmarks remain, tests at 14k gold. It has an antique font letter L engraved into one shoulder.
Antique box not included. Please note the measurements as I have small hands and it can be difficult to decipher scale from photos.
MEASUREMENTS:
Size 7 1/4, slightly over but does not reach 7 1/2. The ring face is 3.6mm north to south. It weighs just 1 gram.
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Dainty piece.
Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned and in estate condition. They will have patina, surface wear, a few small nicks. These pieces may also have evidence of a sizing, some build up around the stones and / or inclusions seen under magnification, typical for antique pieces. I have mentioned any noticeable issues above and they are all still wearable and eager to be loved and accepted for many years to come, (the preservation of antique jewelry, even those with signs of their age and history, is important to me. : )
But - Please note due to age, this piece is not in mint condition. Pictures also serve as part of the description and condition report so please utilize the zoom feature which will magnify any wear significantly more than what is visible to the eye while wearing : )
Thanks so much for looking at my items!
