A gorgeous and sentimental ring from the Victorian period. The ring is made from solid 9ct gold with a high carat wash, and has been made in the shape of a buckle with a lovely wide design and a slightly D-shaped shank. The buckle is plain to the centre and the shoulders have applied forget-me-not flowers in gold.
This ring is beautifully sentimental with two of the strong messages typical of this period: the buckle symbolises eternal love, unbreakable bonds and loyalty, whilst the forget-me-nots are also a romantic symbol literally meaning do not forget me. Such a unusual band and rare to find with the applied flowers.
