Description: Exceptional antique 18th Century gold and enamel Memorial Jewelry with Hair Locket. Very fine and rare antique Memorial Ring / Mourning Ring of 18K Gold and Enamel with a domed crystal Hair Locket at the top of the Ring with a lock of braided Hair, tenderly placed inside the domed Crystal. The Ring dates to circa: 1796. The 18K Gold & Enamel Memorial Ring - Hair Locket Ring has touches of the original black and white Enamel and inscribed around the outside of the ring it reads: ELiz. Hodgson, OB 28 APR. 1796 AE21. The Ring is a Ring Size 8 1/2. The band is slightly misshapen in area; not uncommon for jewelry of this age. The Ring was assayed at 18K Gold. The Ring is a fine and exquisite example of late 18th Century Georgian Memorial Jewelry. So much prettier and more detailed in person than the photos show. For more information on antique Georgian Jewelry, see page 23, in "American Gold".
