About the Item

Antique twin serpent ring from the late 19th century symbolizing eternal love. The two diamonds in the snakes' head are old mine cut diamonds weighing totally 0.21 cts., near colorless, (H/I) and very slightly included to slightly included. The ring weighs 8.6 grams. It is a size 10.25 and can be resized. Serpent or snake jewelry has always been a popular motif. The serpent symbolizes not only eternal love, but also fertility and the circle of life and regeneration. Our double snake ring is a classic example in fine condition. Today, a preponderance of jewelry is machine made in large factories around the world with abundant and obvious suspicions as to its enduring qualities using not only inferior stones, but also man made stones and treated stones utilizing artificial substances. Alternatively, our antique snake is one of a kind, handcrafted, and brimming with personality! Please note our model has a medium to large hand size. All items sold are accompanied by a detailed Statement of Value by our gemologist, as well as all original gemological documentation, if specified in the listing. As always, we guarantee all pieces to be exactly as represented. Each piece of jewelry arrives in a gift-wrapped fine presentation box. Over the decades of our stewardship as a small but exemplary purveyor of the jeweler's art, we have strived to offer a fine and authentic selection, in excellent condition, of collectible jewels from all highly sought time periods at competitive prices. In the process, we have had the extraordinary good fortune of meeting remarkable people - some collectors, others just extremely interesting individuals who have taken the time and effort to examine their lives and select things that tend to make them smile, or admire, or just wonder at the exciting endlessly creative and nuanced panoply of jeweled artifacts.
