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.

Silver Bolt Ring by N.E. From Danish
$ 500.00
I admit to being a big fan of the Danish jewelry designer N. E. (Niels Erik) From. From lived from 1908 to 1982 and did most of his work in the 1950s when the Modern movement was sweeping through Scandinavia. I find his work to be so bright and whimsical, I admit to having a pretty substantial collection of his pieces tucked away in my own personal jewel box!
This wonderful From ring is fully wrought in sterling silver with a lovely soft matte finish. The ring measures 26.7 mm north to south and 18.4 mm across at the face and sits 8 mm off the finger, it narrows to 4.3 mm at the back of the band.

The term 'Mizpah' is found in Genesis 31:49, it means 'watchtower' and is used as a blessing, meaning "May the Lord keep watch between you and me when we are away from each other". You just know that those sentimental Victorians had to use this romantic and wonderful phrase in their art and jewelry!
