This gorgeous antique Victorian coiled snake ring is crowned with a fabulous 0.25ct Ruby which has a lovely pink hue complimented by sparkling old cut Diamonds.
Serpent jewellery became popular in the Victorian era and symbolized a wonderful combination of love, loyalty and friendship.
The Ruby was a favourite among kings and emperors across the globe and a worthy rival of the Diamond, boasting a fiery red flame which has long been worshipped as symbol of love and passion.
The piece is a lovely coiled design all modelled in 18ct Yellow Gold. It looks beautiful wrapped around the finger and very eye-catching.
