Victorian 14 Karat Yellow Gold 'REGARD's Acrostic Hidden Message Ring
About the Item
This 14 Karat yellow gold ring from the Victorian era is a distinctive example of acrostic jewelry, which was particularly beloved for its sentimentality. It features synthetic gemstones whose initial letters spell out the word 'REGARD' - Ruby, Emerald, Garnet, Amethyst, Ruby again, and Diamond - a common romantic expression of the time. The stones are neatly claw-set in an openwork gallery, allowing light to enhance their color and brilliance.
The band itself is hand decorated with intricate engravings, typical of the period's craftsmanship. Such engravings not only added to the ring's beauty but also indicated a personalized touch that was highly valued in Victorian jewelry. Being in possession of this ring, directly connects you to a bygone era.
Historically, this ring is more than an accessory; it is a testament to the Victorian fascination with symbolism and covert messages of affection. Jewelry of this kind would often be exchanged as tokens of love, serving both as a personal adornment and a secret declaration of romantic interest. The 'REGARD' ring, therefore, is a romantic emblem, reflecting the sentimental and ornate style characteristic of the late 1800s.
