This Victorian 18ct Gold keeper ring will make a splendid addition to your antique jewellery collection. Crafted from a lusciously saturated 18ct Gold in a honey hue, she slides smoothly and comfortably onto the finger.
Keeper rings were traditionally worn to prevent another (usually more valuable) ring from sliding off the finger, characterised by a snug fit and braided design. We think that she is beautiful in her own right and deserves to be shown off! What a wonderful testament to the Victorian era.

VERY GOOD. This Victorian 18ct Gold keeper ring is in very good antique condition. The sumptuous 18ct Gold retains its rich hue throughout, and only has a couple of very tiny dings to the outside band, which are hardly noticeable. Free from major dents and scratches, this ring has kept beautifully over the years. The braided design has also kept well, only smoothening very slightly over time. Overall, this ring is a gorgeous piece that you will treasure for years to come.
