Art Deco Snake Ring
ON HOLD
Remarkable antique serpent ring dating from the Art Deco period, circa 1920. The snake's jaws are stretched open with long fangs biting down on a 6.75ct, vivid royal blue sapphire. It's intricately textured, with cross-hatched back scales and ribbed belly scales, and realistic engraved detailing to the head. The eye is set with a single old cut diamond, and it's crafted in solid 14 carat gold. Likely made in the USA.

Condition
We offer detailed and accurate condition reports on each listing. These pieces are antique, vintage, or pre-loved, often over 100 years old so they're going to have lived a life. A healthy patina and the odd scuff/scrape are quite normal... it's part of their charm! Everything we present has been checked over by our jeweller and should be good for wear for many years to come (unless otherwise stated) but please remember to treat them with appropriate care and consideration for their age.
