This extraordinary and very rare full-skeleton ring is the only one we've seen in nearly a decade. A crowned skeleton, hourglass, gravedigger's tools, and a plaque which reads "Memento Mori" all serve to remind us that tempus fugit / time is fleeting. It's engraved inside for Saml [Samuel] Chanter Gent [Gentleman??] who died on 1 Mar 1721 Aeta 22. Why is the skeleton wearing a crown? Was there a connection to royalty here?
