Super Antique Signet style Snake Ring.
The centre of the ring is set with a lovely muted fawney coloured Agate, carved with two hearts tied together on a ribbon (or branch)
The gold border is modelled as two gold snakes coiled around the ring, one tail drooping onto the ring shoulder each side, each heat set with three old cut diamonds, one on the crown of his head, and two smaller ones for eyes.
The two snake's bodies join at the shoulder and create the shank .
Inside the shank is stamped with 14K for 14 carat, spelt the American way, Karat, so am guessing this is an American ring.
The two snakes represent everlasting love, as do the two hearts tied together!
