This sweet and unusual antique claddagh ring dates to the Victorian period (1837-1901). It features the traditional motif of two hands clasping a heart to represent love and friendship. For an added touch of glamour, the heart is set with an old cut diamond at its center and the band is striped with a swirling ribbon of black enamel. The ring is crafted in buttery 18ct yellow gold throughout. It is perfect for use as an engagement or anniversary band, or to wear for its beauty alone.
Size Q (US 8.5). Cannot be resized due to enamel detailing on the band.
No stamps are present, but tests as 18ct gold.
