the antique georgian 1820 hairwork and enamel mourning ring

This elegant mourning ring from 1820 is a stunning example of late Georgian design. The head of the ring showcases a bezel-set hairwork panel surrounded by intricate gold detailing. The shoulders are adorned with floral motifs set against black enamel, which continues along the band and are framed by fine milgrain edges. The enamel and gold create a striking contrast, highlighting the intricate craftsmanship of the period.
The interior of the band is engraved: "Ann Colley Ob. 21st May 1820 Æ 43." This touching inscription adds a deeply personal element to this beautiful piece.
This ring, circa the late Georgian era, is in good condition, with overall light wear to the band and glass panel commensurate with age.
