gold honeysuckle ring with an agate intaglio

An 18-carat yellow gold (confirmed through acid testing) ring with an oval agate centrepiece engraved with a charming depiction of a caterpillar nestled amidst honeysuckle. This flower symbolises trustworthiness, connection, and durability while the caterpillar signifies being in the right place at the right time. The reverse of the ring is engraved with the Spanish word for honeysuckle, Madreselva. The stone is horizontally set in a rubbed-over setting, and the ring’s shank is rounded and decorated with a delicate line at each side. Inscribed on the inside of the shank is: ‘June 7 1814’.
