EXTREMELY RARE EARLY 17th CENTURY MEMENTO MORI RING. CIRCA 1620

Posted by admin On June 4, 2022

For sale here is an extremely rare 17th Century Memento Mori silver and gold gilt ring. This particular ring was part of an ex private European collection, acquired in the 1980s. I have done a lot of research on this wonderful historic ring, including its market value, This is a known and extremely rare example. And a true museum worthy piece. As well as historically important ring. This example can be dated accurately to the early 1600s. The ring still has traces of its original gold gilding over solid sliver. What I love about this piece is how wonderfully illustrated the skull is, and so typical of the period, unlike anything we see today, and far nicer than many I’ve seen in major museums. The inscription reads (BEHOLD THE ENDE) A really wonderful ring, and unique part of history, and served to always remind its wearer that one day, we all must die. Ring measures (UK P) (US 8.5) and weighs 5.6 grams. Ring will also come with the box pictured. This ring would take pride of place in any private collectors collection or museum. This item is not for sale to members with negative or no feedback! This item is in the category “Jewellery & Watches\Vintage & Antique Jewellery\Rings”. The seller is “stylishclassics21″ and is located in this country: GB. This item can be shipped to United Kingdom.
