Belt and buckle imagery was used in the Victorian and Edwardian eras to symbolize strength, fidelity, and eternity. The motif lends itself most naturally to bracelets and rings but can also be seen decorating lockets, earrings, and brooches. This 18k gold ring is set with 9 rose cuts and a single .05ct old European cut diamonds and is hallmarked for Birmingham 1898.
