Victorian Turquoise and Pearl Ring 14CT Gold

A beautiful Victorian 14-carat rosy gold ring with lovely vivid blue and green turquoises and tiny gleaming split pearls. The design is unusual, the ornate wide shoulders have a more European look than the English antique turquoise jewellery we usually see.
 
Turquoise, in the language of Victorian sentimental jewellery, always represents the forget-me-not flower symbolising true love and loyalty. A romantic symbol used as a constant and powerful reminder of a love lost or perhaps of a sweetheart sent off to fight in the Crimean war.
