England, 1915—the Arts and Crafts movement was at its peak, where every piece was a work of art, made with care, made by hand. The garnet at the center—deep, blood-red—feels as though it holds centuries of secrets. It is a stone meant to be worn by someone who moves through life with purpose, leaving just a hint of mystery behind.

The stone itself, a cabochon-cut garnet, measures an impressive 18x13x5 mm, weighing 12.32 carats. It’s embraced by an intricate silver setting, adorned with golden leaves and berries that spiral gracefully around the gem. The ring’s face measures 22.7 mm from north to south and 22 mm across, sitting 7 mm above the finger and is a US size 8. Unmarked but verified by acid testing, this 6.9-gram piece speaks the language of true craftsmanship.

To wear it is not just to wear a ring, but to carry a piece of history—one that whispers of a time when life, like jewelry, was better when it was made by hand. less
