A wonderfully unique antique silver ring, simple in form yet full of character and curiosity.
Set into the ring is a long cushion shaped paste intaglio, with a beautifully clear, translucent surface that catches the light with a soft glow. Carved into the stone is the intriguing motto “Lots of News,” in reverse as a traditional intaglio design.
Pieces such as this often carried playful or conversational phrases, offering a glimpse into the humour and social customs of the time. The clarity of the paste allows the engraving to stand out crisply, giving the ring a bright and engaging presence.
The silver setting is clean and understated, perfectly complementing the simplicity of the intaglio while allowing the unusual inscription to take centre stage.
A charming and slightly enigmatic antique ring, with a lightness of design and a wonderful sense of historical personality.
