{"product_id":"georgian","title":"Georgian Era 15ct Gold, Seed Pearl and Garnet Ring","description":"\u003cp class=\"pf0\"\u003eDating to the Georgian era, this remarkable handmade memorial ring is crafted in 15ct yellow gold and centres on an oblong cabochon almandine garnet bordered creamy, silvery seed pearls. Handmade and finely detailed scrollwork decorates the shoulders, reflecting the craftsmanship and sentimental design so characteristic of the early 19th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside the band is the original memorial inscription:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\"Eliz\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e Lewis died 12 Aug 1810 ag\u003csup\u003ed\u003c\/sup\u003e 20.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore than an engraving, it is a deeply personal record of a life remembered over two centuries ago. Memorial rings were commissioned to honour loved ones and to keep their memory close, making each one unique to the individual it commemorates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough not hallmarked, the dated inscription, handmade construction and overall design suggest the ring was made around 1810. Now at 216 years old, it survives as a remarkable piece of antique jewellery and a poignant connection to the life and memory of Elizabeth Lewis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pf0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cf01\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt;\"\u003eStamps: none, acid test \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pf0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cf01\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt;\"\u003eRing size: K at railing edge-L 1\/2 at leading edge.
