Antique 1900s Victorian Serpent Ring with Diamonds in 18K Yellow Gold

In the 19th century, the serpent became the ultimate love emblem -eternity, fidelity, protection -made iconic in the Victorian era. This c.1900 example pairs that symbolism with meticulous bright-cut foliate engraving on a raised oval and the quiet scintillation of antique rose-cut diamonds. The intertwined shoulders form an elegant serpent silhouette; the heads are finished with diamond and red strass eyes, a period flourish that completes the look. It’s refined, symbolic, and effortlessly wearable.
