An Antique 8K Rose Gold ring with a coiled snake set with a cabochon opal on top of its head. This is a classic serpent ring design that has been popular since the Victorian times. It sits comfortably on the finger and has a beautiful presence. The opal has a gorgeous play of fire with reddish orange, green and hints of blue flashes.
Throughout history, snake motifs have been used to symbolize eternal love, rebirth and new beginnings. Queen Victoria rekindled the desire of the snake motif when Prince Albert presented her with a serpent engagement ring with emerald eyes which was her birthstone.
A wonderful addition to your jewellery collection!
