$281.41The Story
A charming early 20th-century serpent ring, made in Chester, England, and hallmarked for the year 1918. Crafted in warm, rosy 9K gold, the ring is formed as a sinuous, looping snake, its body wrapping fluidly around the finger in a continuous sculptural line.
The serpent’s head is set with a small round garnet measuring approximately 3 mm, positioned as the “brain” of the snake; a whimsical detail frequently encountered in serpent jewellery of the late Victorian and Edwardian eras.
Serpent rings have carried symbolic meaning for millennia, associated with eternity, protection, wisdom, and enduring love. The form is fluid and balanced, with a pleasing weight and a comfortable profile, making it eminently wearable while retaining its historic character.
Hallmarked to the interior for Chester and 9K gold, the ring is a quietly expressive piece of early 20th-century English jewellery, full of charm and symbolism.
