This beautiful Late Victorian ring dates to the 1860s and features a classic cluster design of creamy split pearls surrounding a central old mine cut diamond. The diamond has a slight pinkish hue. It is all set in 9ct gold. A fine example of 19th-century romantic jewellery, the ring exhibits traces of mercury gilding—a technique used during the period to give gold a richer, brighter finish.

Mercury gilding, also known as fire gilding, involved applying a gold-mercury amalgam to a metal surface and then heating it to evaporate the mercury, leaving behind a layer of pure gold. Though visually stunning, the process was hazardous due to mercury vapour inhalation and began to fall out of favour by the late 19th century, replaced by safer electroplating methods. The presence of mercury gilding here is an evocative sign of the ring’s genuine antique origin.

Interestingly, the ring was later hallmarked in London in 1968, possibly when it was reshanked to preserve and extend its wearability. The result is a wonderful blend of original Victorian craftsmanship with a later period of British jewellery history.

A charming and elegant piece that carries both beauty and a fascinating story through its layers of history.

Does the job
Tastes like boiled oysters, so it has that nailed down. I use it in my shrimp ramen noodles sometimes, sometimes I use it to flavor garnish dishes. Best price I could find, but apparently it is a specialty product.

Unparalleled source of heme iron.
This stuff is medicine if your are anemic or have low serum iron. Elemental iron from veggies or pills must be prepared by your body to carry oxygen in hemoglobin. Not so with iron from animals and oysters are unparalleled in iron content. Even if you don't find them delicious you will find them efficacious.

Do not recommend
Edible, though barely. Definitely the worst tasting oysters I've tried of all the brands. Hopefully I don't get food poisoning as has been reported by other reviewers.

High quality product.
Warmth? I’m not sure what that means. I make a simple dish out of these, some milk, butter and salt and pepper—then I “warm” it up. They’re a little pricey but the quality and taste/flavor is great. I would definitely buy them again.
