A beautiful early 19th-century mourning ring with a carved sardonyx forget-me-not and a halo of black onyx in 9ct gold. Inscribed “W. Jackson 6th June 1823.”

Mourning rings were often commissioned to honour a loved one’s passing, and this example is particularly touching. The forget-me-not carved into sardonyx is a classic Georgian mourning motif, representing remembrance, devotion, and the enduring bond between the wearer and the deceased.

Size U 1/2

Condition: Good antique condition. The ring has been historically enlarged.
