A wonderfully whimsical Victorian ring, full of character and antique charm. At first glance it appears a simple piece, but at its centre sits an extraordinary miniature creation: a hand carved labradorite devil’s head, sculpted in full three dimensional detail.

The little devil is rich in personality. He's complete with a mischievous smile, carefully defined facial features, and expressive contours that bring him vividly to life. Under certain angles, the natural iridescence of the labradorite flashes with its signature blue-grey fire, adding to the magical quality of the carving. We believe he may once have been adorned with tiny gold horns or other adornments to the face. 

Set into a band of buttery 18 carat gold, this piece embodies the Victorian fascination with the unusual, the symbolic, and the humorous. Rings featuring figural carvings, especially in gemstones, are rare survivors, making this an especially special find.

A captivating and utterly unique jewel, perfect for collectors of curious Victorian treasures or anyone who loves jewellery with personality and charm.
