Regency 15ct Gold Regard Cluster Ring

A very pretty 15ct gold late Georgian ring that was made circa 1820. It is composed of a pansy which is a pun on the French words “Pensee a moi” which mean “Think of me”. The stones are Ruby, Emerald, Garnet, Amethyst, Ruby and a Diamond in the centre. The first letter of each stone spells “Regard”. There is a pretty bobble design around the gemstones and a  leaf motif bifurcated shank that compliments the pansy.

These rings were highly popular in the early 1800s and were given as tokens of love.
