The face is set with an octagonal carnelian in a rub-over setting, engraved with a cartouche — a personal touch that speaks to the ring's original purpose as a seal. The mount is decoratively embellished with foliate detail that continues around three-quarters of the shank, the shoulders tapering elegantly from 1.3cm at the head down to 0.3cm at the back of the band. At 11g, this is a ring with a genuinely satisfying weight and presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA handsome and wearable antique signet ring — the carnelian was one of the most popular stones for Victorian seal rings, and the foliate engraving on this example gives it a richness and character that plain-shanked examples lack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCirca:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1870\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15ct yellow gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStone:\u003c\/strong\u003e Octagonal carnelian, rub-over set, cartouche engraved\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDetail:\u003c\/strong\u003e Foliate engraving to shank (three-quarter)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e T (UK)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.8 × 1.9cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHallmarks:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15ct\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Wildsmith Jewellery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55774828626304,"sku":null,"price":1750.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0273\/2127\/0385\/files\/34496FF5-5CA9-48F6-99D8-37C30CAB4E20.jpg?v=1741991328","url":"https:\/\/wildsmithjewellery.co.uk\/de\/products\/victorian-15ct-gold-carnelian-signet-ring-c-1870","provider":"Wildsmith Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
