Antique 9kt Rose gold keeper ring, Edwardian
About the Item
The keeper ring is a classic and highly sought after ring style, like this antique Edwardian era 9kt rose gold keeper ring.
The face is made up from a scrolling knot with beading and this leads to the bifurcated shoulders and smooth gold band.
The ring is crafted in a rich 9kt rose gold with a warm inviting glow.
It would make a great stackable piece for your collection.
There are a number of stories behind the origins of the keeper ring stretching far back to the Georgian eras.
One was that they were worn as guard rings when jewels were worn over gloved hands, another and perhaps the most commonly known is that they are used to hold or keep more expensive rings in place by wearing them above.
The other and the most romantic version of the origin is that they were worn as pre marriage rings, basically saying that the intended wearer was a keeper.

- Antique 14k Gold Plaited Band Ring, Elephant Hair, MonogrammedLocated in NEWARK, GBThis antique Raj era plaited 14kt gold band ring really is staggeringly beautiful! Whilst it has the dark aesthetic of a mourning piece these Victorian beauty's were often bought home from travels and gifted as love tokens. This is most likely a love token piece as it has an added front panel in 9kt Rose gold with the monogrammed initials DD. Elephant hair has been used in Jewellery for thousands of years, the hair used in the pieces is naturally shed by the elephants and they come to no harm with the making of these pieces, neither back then nor now as the tradition still continues in parts of the world today! It is said to bring love, strength and act as a protector from harm and sickness. The most striking thing for me about this band is the lovely intricate woven and plaited design around the centre of the band, this is then bordered top and bottom by the rich dark brown, almost black elephant hair strands...Category
