A deeply romantic Victorian ring, rich in symbolism and wonderful craftsmanship.

At its centre is a beautifully formed pansy, created in the Pietra Dura tradition using a combination of foiled glass and hard stone. The flower is wonderfully detailed bringing  the pansy to life with remarkable realism.

The pansy is held within a higher carat gold setting, which frames the motif with a buttery warmth. This sits atop an ornate mount, where twisted gold wirework adds texture and enhancing the ring’s charm. The band itself is created in 9 carat gold.

In Victorian jewellery, the pansy carried a particularly tender meaning. Derived from the French “pensée” meaning thought, it symbolised remembrance and love. Often given as a token to say “I am thinking of you.” As such, pansy jewels were imbued with subtle sentiment, making them especially meaningful gifts between loved ones.

Elegant and beautifully detailed, this ring is a wonderful example of Victorian artistry. A small but powerful expression of memory, affection, and enduring connection.
