Vintage British keeper ring. Keeper rings were originally worn stacked with a wedding ring to prevent the ring from falling off the finger. During the Victorian era, it was fashionable to give them to fiancés, with the meaning of "keeping the heart." It is a ring that is both practical and romantic. The distinctive braided pattern is not too simple nor too assertive, making it easy to wear daily. It can be worn alone or stacked with your favorite rings (*^^*) The category is set to women's, but I think it's a design that can be worn by anyone regardless of gender. I purchased it from a vintage jewelry shop. I am selling it to organize my collection. 【Material】 9K 9CT Yellow Gold 【Year】 1988, Sheffield made 【Hallmarks】 ・Maker's mark ・Gold mark ・Assay office ・Date letter 【Size】 Inner circumference: approx. 5.5cm Approximately between size 14 and 15 in Japanese sizes (Image 12) *Please note that there may be slight errors due to amateur measurements.
