About the Item
This quite poignant Georgian ring is inscribed for a little chap who passed away at age 5 in the year 1785.
John Causton was born on the 9th of October 1779 to Richard and Eliza Causton and died on 1st of May 1785.
He is buried at St Bent Fink but sadly it seems that this graveyard was destroyed due to developments..
Crafted in 12ct rose gold and designed as a large Navette Sepia depicting a grieving woman prone under a weeping willow, next to an urn with dear little Johns initials ‘JC’ inscribed to the plinth. Domed rock crystal encompassing the Sepia.
Engraved edging to the Navette edges and engraved shoulders to a slim half round shank.
Fully inscribed to the verso with ‘John Causton - Ob 1 1785 - AE 5ys 7mon’
A large spread to the finger of 3.2cm x 1.8cm, in quite remarkable condition for its 238 years of age, this wonderful piece of history is a must for the serious Georgian jewellery collector.
