Description: There's something extra special about items with a story. This pair of solid 22 gold wedding bands date from England in the late 1700's and are mounted to a Victorian era card detailing their museum-grade provenance. The card was put together by the son and brother of the rings' owners, with a sad and tender description to each, and it's accompanied by a modern note and family tree placing them in history. The family tree is especially fascinating, showing many interesting and distinguished members - some of whom are expanded upon, others not. There's a lot more to be discovered about all of the members, a simple internet search immediately showed one is the music chonicler and compiler of an important book of folk songs from Devon, others are to be found in portraits in English stately homes. The rings themselves are fabulously evocative, with patina and character. One has been cut and though they were originally held in place in the card, they are easily removed. These are collectors' rings rather than to be worn. All my items are guaranteed 100% as described or your money back, so buy with confidence! What's more, I offer layaway deals so there's no need to let any of my listings slip through your fingers - just ask! For security all items are stored in a bank's safe deposit box and sent fully insured for peace of mind. If you like this one, click here to see my other items.
