Circa 1800, this beautiful gold Georgian "forget-me-not" ring has a little glass locket compartment behind the face that contains woven hair. A memorial ring, but not necessarily mourning the demise of a loved one, some of these sweetly sentimental rings containing human hair were given as pledges of love and fidelity.

The charming floral ring is crafted in luxurious 18ct yellow gold in a beautiful Rococo design typical of the period. A halo of natural turquoise gemstones form the forget-me-not flower and an old point-cut diamond nestles in a star setting in the centre.

The shoulders are accented in a trio of turquoise stones at each side and simple gold band completes this delicate feminine ring that would have perfectly suited the fashionable lightweight floral silk gowns of the romantic Regency era.

A fabulous rare find and only becoming rarer as these Georgian sentimental locket rings become more and more scarce!
