DATE: Victorian, 1893

Adorable late Victorian lover's knot ring made in the year 1893. It's formed from a single length of thick gold wire, deftly worked into a complex pair of entwined hearts - sort of mind-boggling when you consider how it must have been made. The simplicity of the message couldn't be more powerful. Crafted in 18 karat gold, with clear English hallmarks to the inner band.
