Lovely Georgian paste eternity band,circa 1800. This ring is designed with a band of pastes that have been foiled below of each faceted stones, and then set in hand crimped collets. The use of foiling was to enhance the stone and reflect light, as they were commonly closed in the back. This process was laborious and took great skill. The metal is silver topped with gold, used to prevent tarnish of the silver . All stones are original and surface wear commensurate with age can be seen with a 10X ...click for details
