An original Victorian 15ct gold snake ring featuring a vibrant turquoise cabochon set between the head and tail of a coiled serpent. Symbolic of eternal love and regeneration, the snake motif is further defined by its raised eyes, a detail typical of 19th-century craftsmanship.
The band measures 8.5mm at its widest point and weighs 4.85g. The turquoise stone is 4.75mm long and 3.5mm wide, offering a striking contrast against the warm gold. Though unhallmarked, the gold has been professionally tested.
Some minor wear is visible inside the band, consistent with its age.
UK size N / US 6.5, with slight adjustability.
