Potentially Georgian/Victorian ring? Does anyone have any insight?
I am currently located in GA in the USA but I am British and this ring came from my mother in the uk. Sussex to be more specific but I know my grandmother was born in London. I inherited this family ring which I absolutely adore. As far as I know it was passed down to my mother by her mother and it had been passed down to her before that but we don’t really know how old it is or how many more times it had been passed down. I have no intention of selling it. It fits me absolutely perfectly and I am extremely sentimental about family heirlooms so this will be staying with me and passed down to my daughter eventually!
I would love to find out how old this ring is, what style this is, the possible meaning/sentiment behind the layout and potentially even who is likely to have made it if that’s not a completely impossible task! I’m happy to do plenty of research myself but thought I’d ask here to see if anyone had any interesting leads or suggestions! I live in a small town in GA so there aren’t really any experts in the field!
I have attached lots of photographs and a video.
The ring doesn’t have and any marks or stamps on the inside of the band but it does look to have possibly been adjusted in size at some point to make it a little smaller.
The words on the outside of the band read “nos coeurs unis” which I believe is French for “our hearts united”.
I don’t believe the box it is in to be its original box because the slot the ring sits in is much wider than the ring itself. But it does appear to possibly be of similar age.
Thank you in advance!!
