Antique English Carnelian Ring | Arts & Crafts Movement

A rare and exquisite antique English carnelian ring, handcrafted during the Arts and Crafts Movement — a period celebrated for its rejection of mass production and its devotion to skilled artisanship. Set in silver, this piece showcases the hallmark qualities of the era: organic forms, rich gemstone color, and meticulous hand workmanship.

The warm, deep orange of the carnelian stone is beautifully complemented by the hand-wrought silver setting with gold floral decorations. Attributed to the renowned designer Bernard Instone, it is a collectable piece of jewelry history and stunning on the hand.
