A stunning antique seal ring of the finest quality and craftsmanship. The ring features an oval-shaped bloodstone intaglio, carved in fine detail and set on a band of 14ct yellow gold. Etched into the stone is a banner bearing the Latin phrase 'Stare Super Vias Antiquas' which translates to 'Stand on the Ancient Ways' (a perfect sentiment for a lover of antique jewels). Above the banner there is an image of a bridge above turbulent waters. The band is 14ct yellow gold, with a knotted design to the shoulders.
No stamps, but the gold tests as a minimum of 14ct.
Size L (US 6). Can be resized within reason.
