Yellow Gold, Garnet
Price: Price on application
Post Medieval Tudor table cut garnet ring. Set with a rectangular table cut garnet in a closed backrubover setting with an approximate weight of 0.40 carats, to a raised quatrefoilbezel, with intricately scalloped decorations showing traces of white enamel, flanked by ornate carved shoulders and tapering through to a solid court shape shank. Tested yellow gold, circa 1530-1600.
Unearthed near Fakenham in East Rudham, Norfolk. Taking into consideration the sumptuary laws of the time and the incredible cost that would have gone into the creation of such a ring, it is highly likely that this piece would have been owned by someone of note, but we can only wonder as to who this would have been.
This type of finger-ring is known from 16th-century portraits, such as that on the forefinger of Frances Brandon, Duchess of Suffolk, painted in 1539 and reproduced in Oman
1974, pl. 25A. Oman illustrates several examples and comments that they were immensely popular from c. 1530 until they went out of fashion c. 1600 (Oman 1974, 23-24).

From the unlikely crowning of Henry VII in 1485 to the death of Elizabeth I in 1603, no chapter in English history has captivated the public imagination quite like the Tudors. The 118 year long reign of the Tudor Dynasty saw unprecedented upheaval. This was an era marked by political turbulence, religious revolution and soap-opera-level scandal that has cemented this period and the monarchs who reigned it utterly iconic.
