Antique Victorian mourning band, with black enamel contrasting a floral design, engravings all around the band, and initials engraved into the back. The ring opens to reveal an carefully woven band of hair. The craftsmanship of this piece is incredible- from the delicately woven hair to the engraving work on the band, to the tiny hinges that still work perfectly to reveal and conceal the hair work.

Victorians commonly used hair in jewelry, both as a way to commemorate loved ones that had passed as well as a way to wear a reminder of living friends and family. For this piece in particular, the black enamel leads us to believe it was created to commemorate a departed loved one.

FAQs

What is gold karat level?  ▿

You'll see in all our descriptions a number and then "k" (ex. 14k, 17k, 12k). This indicates the purity level of the gold in the piece, which is the ratio of other metals to gold in the piece. Pure gold, which is not often used in jewelry because it is softer, is 24k. 14k (which is the most common in the U.S.) is 14 parts gold to 10 parts other metals, making up a total of 24 parts. The purity level is also sometimes conveyed as a percentage (ex. 375, 585, 750).

What does estate/vintage/antique mean? ▿

Vintage refers to pieces that are over 20 years old, while antique refers to pieces over 100 years old. We use "estate" to refer to pre-owned pieces that are less than 20 years old or ones we can't determine an exact age for. Vintage and antique pieces can have imperfections or scratches from being owned and worn before. We do our best to document and make clear any imperfections in our photos and listings, and please ask questions before purchasing if there's anything you are unsure about! Product colors may slightly vary due to photographic lighting sources or your monitor settings, and all measurements are approximate.
