The year is 1870! The Metropolitan Museum of Art is founded in New York. The world premiere of Tchaikovsky's Romeo and Juliet takes place in Moscow and Wagner's Walküre in Munich. And in Berlin? The king is preparing for war against France. In that eventful year, the present Ring was also submitted to the Birmingham Assay Office: This is shown by its characteristic sequence of stamps on the inside. The design of the ring is also typical of the long Victorian period, also known as the "High Victorian" era: Bright, high-carat gold, fine natural pearls and small diamonds sparkle in a so-called "half hoop", which adorns only the top of the finger with a row of luxurious stones. The ring band itself is made of gold and has a fine, ornamental design. We discovered this beautiful ring in London. A wearable, wonderfully preserved piece of jewelry from an exciting time.
