We are featuring a Victorian "Man in the Moon" Ring in 9K gold and hallmarked Chester, 1897. Interest in "Man in the Moon" rings was a brief trend during the late Victorian period when discoveries of comets and celestial bodies were all the rage. The iridescent glow of the moonstone with the kindly face of the man on the moon makes this a charming ring. Few such rings of this sort have survived over the years due to the fragility of the moonstone. Our ring has a charming original Victorian carving and nice three dimensional face.
