Description
A striking and exceptionally massive antique men’s skull ring, crafted in vermeil gilt silver and richly decorated with natural garnets set into the eye sockets.
The skull is rendered in deep relief with extraordinary detail:
- Helm-style armor motif with riveted borders
- Highly ornamented sides featuring feathered / scaled relief work
- Finely sculpted teeth, nasal cavity, and facial anatomy
- Garnet eyes providing dramatic contrast and intensity
This is not a hollow or lightweight piece — the ring weighs an impressive 27 grams, giving it a powerful presence on the hand.
The craftsmanship strongly reflects Gothic / memento mori symbolism, likely produced as a statement piece, possibly ceremonial or custom-made.
Condition
Good antique condition consistent with age.
- Natural surface wear and patina
- Minor imperfections from age and hand craftsmanship
- Stones secure and intact
No repairs observed.
