A Victorian 12ct gold ring set with an 18th-century intaglio carved in rich amber-toned agate. The oval intaglio depicts a classical male profile typical of Georgian–era seal engraving from the 1700s, displaying crisp surviving detail around the hair, brow and jawline. The later Victorian shank frames the stone securely, creating a striking contrast between the warm gold and the deep two-tone agate. A strong collector’s piece for those interested in antique intaglio rings, Georgian seal carvings, and Victorian gold jewellery.
