Item Details
Description
Ca. AD 1200 - 1300.A pretty medieval 21 ct gold ring with a green chalcedony cabochon set in a square bezel connected to a simple round hoop. This wearable ring is extremely elegant with simple lines that perfectly represent the order of late middle age society. It possibly belonged to a man of power due to the weight of gold given that the typical gold stirrup rings are between 2-3.5 grams on average. This piece has undergone X-ray fluorescence analysis to confirm the metallurgical content suggesting its ancient origin and lack of modern trace elements. This piece comes with an authentication report by Sami Fortune, ancient jewellery specialist. Size: D: 18.14mm / US: 6 1/2 / UK: P 1/2; 7g Provenance: Private London collection; Ex. Artemission collection; previously in a collection of a lady who purchased the ring from a Parisian gallery in the 1990s. This item has been cleared against the Art Loss Register database and comes with a confirmation letter.
