A charming Victorian signet ring of petite scale, rich in character and refined detail. At its centre sits a beautifully banded agate, carefully carved with a single Gothic letter “C”, its natural layers creating soft contrast and depth to the engraving.

The agate is set within a fine 9 carat gold mount, designed as an elegant knotted ribbon motif. This style was especially popular during the Victorian era, symbolising enduring bonds and affection, making it a fitting setting for an initialed signet ring.

A lovely and intimate Victorian jewel, combining personal symbolism, fine engraving and timeless design. Ideal for collectors or those drawn to meaningful antique jewellery.
