Georgian Memento Mori Ring of 18k Gold
About the Item
This Georgian era, 18k gold ring (circa 1748) serves as a poignant reminder of a life cut short.
The ring features a hand painted skull under a faceted rock crystal with a white enamel band adorned with old English text that reads 'Thos. Griffeth 25 Oct 1748 at 23'.
The ring is a size 6.5 and cannot be resized. It is in good condition with light surface wear; however, the skull is not well defined and only noticeable under magnification.
The metal content of this ring was verified with XRF (x-ray analysis) and jeweler's acids.

This 14k Gold Plated Ring in White Enamel has the letters LIGHT
Designer: J Dauphin
The Concept of Light – A Universal Symbol
Across time and cultures, light has symbolized life, clarity, truth, and transformation. From the sun that sustains us to the flame that illuminates the path, light is the force that guides, heals, and reveals. It represents hope, purity, and the power of creation. To step into the light is to awaken—to see, understand, and connect to something greater.
In spiritual traditions worldwide, light is seen as the bridge between the physical and the divine—a source of energy, protection, and higher wisdom. It’s a symbol that resonates with all who seek inner peace, purpose, and connection.
Light in Kabbalah and Jewish Mysticism
In Kabbalah, the ancient mystical tradition of Judaism, Light (Hebrew: Or) is more than a symbol—it is the divine energy of creation itself. Flowing from Ein Sof (the Infinite), this spiritual light animates all existence. It fills the soul, awakens the heart, and brings divine protection and clarity.
Kabbalistic teachings describe the Light of God as pure, infinite, and always seeking to fill the vessel—whether it be a soul, a world, or a sacred object. Through Kabbalah jewelry, such as pieces engraved with Hebrew letters, sacred symbols, or Kabbalistic names of God, one can carry this light and energy of protection with them, staying connected to the divine flow throughout daily life.
