Condition:
VERY GOOD. This Georgian 9ct Gold Amethyst & Jet mourning ring is in fabulous antique condition. Each gemstone is securely set and boasts a beautiful hue and sheen, whilst the rosy 9ct Gold shank design has kept wonderfully, too! There are some signs of a previous resizing, but this is hardly noticeable when she is worn. The inscriptions on the inner band have kept well, ensuring she retains all her sentimental value! Whilst there is some very light abrasion to the gemstone facets, this is only noticeable under a jeweller's loupe. All in all, she remains a stunning treasure, the likes of which you don't find every day.
