This romantic Georgian Natural Pearl Forget Me not Ring would have been given as a love ring back in its day. It evokes the forget-me-not with its 5 well matched pearls radiating about a central diamond. Besides the forget me not arrangement of the pearls, a coiled serpent curls around each side of the ring, the snake's head appearing at the bottom of the ring on one side and at the top of the ring on the other. A small diamond resides at the center of the pearls in a cut down collet setting. The ring is hallmarked for the year 1813, Birmingham and 22K. This one is not to be missed. The back of the ring is missing the hair that it once held under crystal, but truthfully, it is rare to find the hair compartment intact in any Georgian ring today.
