About the Item
Dramatic, rare, and richly symbolic, this one-of-a-kind ring features a gold quartz insect with twinkling diamond eyes, artfully set atop a polished onyx backdrop. The insect—originally the head of a 14k gold Victorian stickpin (circa 1890)—has been masterfully riveted onto a bold 10k gold signet ring from the 1920s, creating a singular jewel that bridges two design eras with cohesion and flair.
The ring's face measures approximately 0.8 inches by 0.6 inches across and sits boldly on the hand while remaining wearable for daily adornment or as a standout in a curated jewelry collection. It is currently a size 8.5 and can be resized for an additional charge. The piece remains in excellent condition, with all components securely set and materials verified via XRF testing and jeweler's acids.
This is a singular ring for the collector who appreciates the artistry of conversion jewelry, the mystique of natural materials, and the lasting appeal of antique craftsmanship reborn.
