JACOBEAN PERIOD GOLD RING WITH NIELLO FOLIATE SCROLLS AND HERALDIC MOTIF
17th century AD. A gold ring with round-section hoop expanding at the shoulders to an oval-shaped bezel set with 'milky' glass presenting a stylised flower within an heraldic shield; circumferential band to the bezel rim; the shoulders are engraved with foliate scrolls, which continue around and beneath the bezel and which are inlaid with niello. See Chadour, A.B., Rings: The Alice and Louis Koch Collection, Volume I, Leeds, 1994, for comparable examples, especially for close parallels to the foliate design on the shoulders and bezel. 2.38 grams, 21.97mm overall, 17.96mm internal diameter (approximate size British O, USA 7, Europe 14.98, Japan 14) (3/4"). From a Dutch collection, 1960s-1980s. Very fine condition.
