This ring is from London, 19th Century.
Fully hallmarked, made with 18ct yellow gold.

There's nothing quite as polarising as mourning jewellery... people either love the sentiment or find it a bit creepy π

Let's talk details for these three divine pieces π«
1. Opal and Diamond cluster ring.
- Set in 18ct yellow gold.
- Fully hallmarked, dating to 1897, Birmingham
- One solid white opal surrounded by twelve natural diamonds.
The same year this ring was made, 1897, Queen Victoria celebrated the 60th anniversary of her accession to the throne. She threw a "diamond jubilee", where the streets of England exploded with colour, and Queen Victoria telegraphed a message to her empire, "From my heart I thank my beloved people. May God bless them. V.R. &I."
2. 18ct Gold brooch with detachable pearl drop
- French, dating to the Art Nouveau Era, c.1900.
The period it was made: The Art Nouveau Era.
The second industrial revolution started in the late 19th century, in which the automatic factory emerged. The increase of machinery and denser populations in cities caused a reaction in art, architecture, and jewellery, which yearned to return to nature.
This can be seen through the use of floral, organic motifs and soft lines, often making use of unique shades and shapes of pearls rather than what would be considered "perfect".
3. Diamond solitaire in White Gold.
- 1.03 carats of diamond
- Dating to the 20th Century
With an intricate gallery and small diamonds on each shoulder, this is a truly magnificent engagement ring.
Claw set, and available for a complimentary resize.

Taylor's dress in the "Fortnight" music video is highly inspired by a Victorian mourning dress π€
How did they mourn a lost one in the Victorian Era?
In Victorian England, there was an etiquette for grieving. For example, wearing coloured clothing within a period of mourning was considered callous or even immoral.
An 1889 article featured in "Good Housekeeping" says...
{ "It is not, however, considered in good taste for a widow adopting mourning to lay aside her crepe and enter society in less than a year.β }
Usually, widows were expected to mourn for two years, and could wear grey and lavender in the last 6 months in a period called "half-mourning" ππ©Ά
Children were required to wear black for one year after the passing of a parent or sibling.
Men added only a black hatband or gloves to their normal attire. π©
Not only was the colour of their clothing significant, but the actual fabrics they wore signified different stages of grief. For example, only the blackest of shades would be worn for the first two years, the period of "deep mourning".
What do you think? Is there anything we can learn from the Victorian's embracing a long period of grieving? Or is this a tradition best left in the past?
