An antique 15ct yellow gold signet ring set with a striking bluey-grey sardonyx to the face, offering a bold yet balanced presence against the warm tone of the gold. Its cool, slate-like hue gives the ring a distinctive character.
The shoulders are finely worked with pierced trefoil detailing on both sides. The combination of the openwork trefoil and smooth signet face creates a strong Victorian profile.
A refined and increasingly scarce example of early 15ct Victorian signet design.
