A beautiful 18ct gold Mizpah ring from 1893. Crafted in rich 18ct gold the band of the ring holds the embossed letters to spell out ‘Mizpah’, a word taken from an ancient Hebrew prayer it literally translates as ‘watch tower’ but was commonly used in Victorian jewellery to ask the Lord to watch over someone and keep them safe. This would likely have been a very sentimental piece of jewellery, possibly a gift between lovers or friends.
This beautiful piece is offered in excellent antique condition with only a small join showing evidence of a historic re-size.

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.
