An original antique shield ring in 15ct yellow gold. Formed in the shape of a protective shield this is the perfect protective talisman to wear every day. The centre holds a bespoke cut shield paste that is surrounded by a halo of chunky half pearls in a classic cut down collet, which mimics the outline of the paste stone to form this wonderful shield.
The ring is finished with a wide split shank and golden ball detailing to the shoulders, which adds a beautiful design feature and texture to this already special antique piece. Sadly, one side the ball detailing has come away ever so slightly from the head of the ring, but we will fix this before shipping or in the re-sizing process. Other than this the only wear to note is some surface wear to the centre stone, which is visible only at certain angles under the light or with a loupe.

We offer a ring re-sizing service by our antique specialist for a small fee, starting at £40.
Most of our rings can be resized, but if they can’t we will stipulate this in the description.
As a rule we will only alter a ring by three UK sizes. If you would like to size a ring more than three UK sizes (either up or down) please contact us on a case by case basis and we will try and accommodate you as best as possible.
We do not offer refunds on altered pieces, so please make sure you love your new piece before you purchase.
Sizing takes approximately 1-2 weeks.
