Antique Georgian Amethyst Paste Infinity Shoulder Pansy Ring in 9k Gold c. 1820, Sentimental, Love Token, Pense a Moi, 1800s, Flower, Dainty

A sweet and symbolic Georgian era amethyst paste pansy ring, with symmetrical, looping infinity shoulders, circa 1820. The openwork shoulders and closed back, cut-down collet settings of the stones are wrought in 9k yellow gold. The ring is a super comfortable fit, as the back of the pansy shaped beze; is even curved concavely to sit with ease on the finger. The word pansy comes from the French “pense” meaning thought, so pansies can be interpreted as sentimental with the implication of “think of me” when worn or seen in antique jewels. Charmingly sweet, and very romantic.

This humble little piece has been well worn and well loved but it certainly has more to give to a loving new caretaker. Time has left her mark upon it, but I kind of love that in a way. It is in fair antique condition. There is evidence of some sizing to the shank, with some thinning to the band, and a few spots of repair to the shoulders. There is a replacement paste, which is just a shade lighter purple than the rest. It is a size 7-7.25
