An amazing and substantial antique ring, remarkable for both its scale and presence on the hand.
The top of the ring is set with a large yellow citrine intaglio of exceptional richness and clarity. At its centre is a finely hand engraved boar. A powerful and traditional motif symbolising courage, strength, and fierce protection. The carving is wonderfully executed, with confident lines that bring the animal vividly to life when the light catches the stone’s glowing depths. The citrine itself dates to the mid Victorian era, making it a beautiful survivor of 19th century craftsmanship.
The ring is created from 9 carat gold, whose warm tone perfectly complements the golden hues of the citrine, enhancing its sunlit brilliance. At some point in its long history the piece appears to have been reshanked with a new band, ensuring strength and longevity for continued wear. The vintage mount is notably heavy and thick, giving the ring a deeply satisfying weight and a reassuring, luxurious feel on the hand.
Bold, tactile, and steeped in symbolism, this is a statement antique ring that balances rugged character with refined artistry. A true conversation piece and a striking addition to any collection.
