A fabulously retro 1970s hefty gold buckle ring with tons of presence. Bearing full London hallmarks this very wide ring is a versatile size for both him and her and provides fantastic finger coverage. At an impressive weight of 7.8 grams it has a classic domed profile with the decorative buckle, strap and belt hole accents still wonderfully crisp without any rubbing smooth.
Buckle rings are said to represent loyalty and eternity, as an amulet they bestow protection to the wearer so it is no wonder they have been a beloved style of ring for well over a hundred years!
A beautiful English statement ring and almost half a century old, buckle rings look stylish and attractive worn on any finger and they make for a distinctive and symbolic wedding ring.
MATERIALS: 9 carat gold
HALLMARKS: stamped inside '9-375' for 9ct, 'leopard head' for London, date letter 't' for 1974 and 'S&K' makers mark
MEASUREMENTS: 7mm wide with a dome rise of 1.5mm
SIZE: UK, S, US 9, sizing is available for an additional charge (the cost of making this ring bigger might turn out expensive due to the amount of gold needed)

CONDITION: in very, very good vintage condition with light surface wear and faint scratches in keeping with age, the buckle detailing is still crisp and there are no dents or dings. Our photos are taken in extreme close-up so you will see magnified scratches that are invisible to the eye and any dark or distorted areas are simply camera reflections. We have cleaned and professionally polished this ring so she is perfect to wear or bestow as a gift.
