Mens Onyx Gold Signet Ring Carved Shoulders
$ 1,550.00
If you love antiques, and you're in London, there is only one place that you absolutely cannot miss, it's called Gray's Antique Centre and it houses hundreds of dealers selling everything from ancient artifacts to art deco gems. Gray's can be found hiding just off of Oxford Street in a lovely terra-cotta wedge of a building in the heart of London's West End (speaking of west ends, the building was built in the 19th century by John Bolding and Son as a toilet factory - hence the nickname 'John' for toilet). Give yourself some time because Gray's has actually spread out over the years and now sprawls over two floors of exquisite dealers. It's enough to make even the most novice antique collector as giddy as a schoolgirl!
I found this ring at Gray's on a Thursday morning. Hand crafted in 15 karat gold, this highly stylized signet ring is set with a smooth, un-carved oval of Onyx. The shoulders of this ring are beautifully adorned with a scroll and arrow motif. This ring is fully hallmarked with the marks for having been made in Birmingham, England in 1874 of 15 karat gold, it also has the makers mark of ‘C.G’. The ring is a size 8 US and weighs 7 grams. The onyx measures 13.4 mm north to south and 10.1 mm across, the overall face of the ring is 15.3 mm north to south and 15.3 mm across, it sits 4.2 mm off the finger and narrows to 4.6 mm at the back of the band.
This wonderful ring is very crisp and super stylish, perfect for a woman or man.

Quietly, they entered the castle grounds, trying not to be caught, as a princess and her suitor weren’t supposed to be out alone, especially after dark.

Antique Edwardian Garnet Solitaire Ring 9k Gold
$ 750.00
Silver bells chimed melodically around me as I strolled through the streets of London. Snow peppered the ground in large flakes, decorating the cobblestones with glitter and tiny white stars. It was unusually cold, and the Christmas trees were lit with colored lights, nutcracker decorations, silver tinsel, and dark red cranberries. I was meeting a long time supplier out for an evening of champagne and show and tell, and as we settled at a table near the fire in one of my favorite pubs, she opened a velvet box and I saw this ring glow like a deep rich fire. I don’t typically go speechless, but it was nearing Christmas, and miracles do happen. I walked back out into the snowy London streets wearing this garnet wrapped in gold, like an early present for my hand.

The ring face measures 4.6 mm north to south and 13.1 mm across, it sits 2.4 mm off the finger and narrows to 2.6 mm at the back of the band.

Antique Belle Epoque Diamond Ring Circa 1905
$ 4,750.00
They called it the Beautiful Era, the Belle Epoque. It was the French Third Republic and peace and prosperity, optimism and advances in technology were spreading across Europe. Starting in the 1880s and lasting until the outbreak of World War I in 1914. The Beauty of the era could be found not only in society, but in art and culture and very certainly in jewelry.
This wonderful Belle Epoque ring is set with an array of sparkling old diamonds. Hand crafted around 1905, this lovely ring is done in 18 karat gold with the diamonds set into platinum. The center stone measures 5.7x 5.3 x 4.2 mm and weighs approximately .93 carats and the ring is set with an additional 12 rose cut diamonds which are set into a swirling pattern that give this ring tons of light, life and movement. The ring is a size 6 but could be resized somewhat to suit. This ring measures 17 mm north to south and 13.8 mm across at the face, it sits 7.8 mm off the finger and narrows to 1.2 mm at the back of the band. This ring weighs 3.5 grams, it is marked but I wasn’t able to figure out the mark, I’ve acid tested it to verify the metal content.
This ring would go perfectly with a glass of Perrier-Jouet Belle Epoque Brut Rose, out of the iconic Poppy flower bottle, but if you want to wear it while drinking an ice cold Corona with a lime on a hot summer day, well, that would be just fine, too.
