An artful, sparkly diamond urn stands out on black enamel with a slim white stripe around it. On the back, it's engraved for Caroline Compton who died in 1798 in Naples at age 64.
thedetails
- Materials
14k rose gold (tests), silver, black & white enamel, 12 1 - 2.5mm rose cut diamonds, 6mm x 4.4mm pear shaped rose cut diamond
- Age
memorial dedication 5 Sept 1798
- Condition
Very good - we've had 3 of the smallest rose cut diamonds replaced (they were missing when we acquired the ring); the urn was riveted in place after the engraving so the dedication is partially obscured, it also slightly faded in places commensurate with age and use
- Size
8.75, can be slightly sized down; 1/2" head, 1/8" shank
