This ring shows the bodies of two snakes in close entwinement. The heads of both animals each bear a cushion-shaped old-cut diamond, while two octagonal diamonds adorn the eyes. Together, the stones weigh around 0.40 carats. The motif of two intertwined snakes is an ancient symbol of friendship and solidarity. The ancient Egyptians were already familiar with this pictorial idea. In Germany, it experienced a renaissance in the Biedermeier period and later in Art Nouveau. These rings were often gifts and were worn as a sign of unbreakable love and attachment. The ring is suitable for both men and women. This beautiful snake ring from the late 19th century came to us from the British capital of London.
