$2,995.00
Dating to the late 18th century, this evocative Georgian mourning ring reflects the refined sentimentality of the era. The ring is centered by an oval rock crystal panel protecting a finely executed sepia memorial miniature painted on bone. A sepia memorial miniature is a small hand-painted commemorative scene, typically executed in warm brown pigments to resemble ink drawings or classical engravings. Popular during the Georgian period, these miniatures often depicted funerary monuments, weeping willows, grieving figures, or urns, serving as deeply personal tributes to deceased loved ones. The scene here features a neoclassical funerary urn beneath a graceful weeping willow, a timeless symbol of grief, remembrance, and enduring love.
