Description
Early 19th century turquoise signet ring. A rare signet ring set with a beautiful natural turquoise in a buttery 22 carat gold setting. This ring is totally original, it looks fantastic when worn. These early rings are so rare to find these days, especially in this condition. The turquoise has some colour discolouration which is a natural slow chemical reaction which has occurred over the last 200 years. We’ve never had a ring like this set in 22 carat gold – the ring has a beautiful simple hallmark of ‘22’ on the inside of the band, which is an absolute joy to see.
