Georgian Pearl Hair Memorial Ring Dated 1801
$ 757.00 $ 890.00
I held my coffee mug, cupped between my hands, staring at an array of rings in a stall on Portobello Road. My eyes grazed over each one, exploring the silvers and the golds, analyzing the diamonds and the emeralds. I’d seen them all before, there was nothing that tempted me. The seller had a peculiar look in her eyes, so I stared her down, and raised a brow. She gave me a wink and went into the back. A minute later she returned with a display of only one piece. This piece.
This Georgian memorial ring was handcrafted in England in 1801. It was made in 18 karat gold and showcases woven hair at the center surrounded by 18 pearls on an oval-shaped ring face. The inside of the band has been inscribed, “Ann Hutton Ob 10 Dec 1801 Age 60”. This ring weighs 4.2 grams and is a size 9. The ring face measures 12.7 north to south, 16 across and sits 3.3 mm off the finger, it narrows to 4.2 mm at the back of the band. There are no marks and it has been acid tested.
Who was this Miss Hutton? I’d really like to know. My curious nature and wanderer’s soul has been a bit restless over this ring. It’s a beautiful antique piece, with at least another two hundred years’ worth of life.

Antique Amethyst Austro-Hungarian Figural Ring Silver Gilt
Sold Out - $ 383.00 $ 450.00
Well, being a February girl, I always find that I gravitate towards Amethysts. I also like big rings and I personally think that purple counts a neutral. So, this ring just ticked off all my boxes when I saw it. I also love the figural styling of the sides and the slightly smokey color of this chunky stone.
Hand crafted around 1900, I think this ring is Austro-Hungarian in origin. it is open at the very back with a somewhat ‘adjustable’ band, although I would not try to adjust it without a jeweler. The big rectangular, faceted stone is being held up on either side by a bust of a man. The central stone measures 12.6x15.8x7.8 mm and weighs about 10.7 carats. The ring measures 19.7 mm north to south and 16.9 mm across at the face and sits 8.3 mm off the finger. It is a size 5.5 and weighs 9.5 grams. The ring is done in silver gilt and is unmarked but has been carefully acid tested as about 830 silver.
