Victorian Ruby & Pearl Ring
A Victorian 14ct gold ring of lyrical sentiment, this jewel takes the form of a tiny flower, its petals set with pearls surrounding a glowing ruby at the heart. The pearls shimmer softly, their silvery lustre imbued with associations of remembrance, while the ruby brings a spark of vivid life, a symbol of passion at the flower’s centre.
Victorians often turned to nature as a language of love and memory, and this design recalls the “forget-me-not,” a bloom long associated with constancy and devotion. Worn upon the hand, it would have served as a token of affection or remembrance, its floral form carrying quiet meaning in an age attuned to symbolism.
The engraved shoulders, rich with texture, frame the cluster with a touch of gothic refinement, grounding the piece in the aesthetics of its time. Romantic yet contemplative, it is a jewel that feels perfectly at home within the brooding elegance of a dark academia autumn.
“Love is the only gold.”
~ Alfred, Lord Tennyson
