Yellow gold 18 karat episcopal ring, adjustable from size 22 to 24, weighing 15.44 g, depicting a pelican symbol with decorative waves, in good used condition and no laboratory report.
Description from the seller
Majestic Episcopal bishop's ring in 18-karat yellow gold, stamped with the 750 mark.
On the ring is depicted a pelican, an ancient symbol of Christ's sacrifice, with some classic wave motifs.
Inside there are two marks, one diamond-shaped with the inscription "750" inside, certifying the metal as 18-karat gold, and another unidentified one, perhaps the maker's mark for the ring.
Ring open at the back, therefore usable by everyone as it fits all sizes; currently the ring is a size 22/24.
Weight: 15.44 grams
Metal: Gold 750 - 18 kt verified
This ring was worn by a bishop during some solemn functions and is to be considered extremely rare; the ring was personally gifted by the bishop and is a truly unique piece of its kind, crafted by a skilled goldsmith presumably during the period of the Great Jubilee of 2000.
Very light signs of wear and microscopic scratches; a slight patina is present, which is normal for gold.
The accompanying photos, to which reference is made, clearly show the utmost care taken in crafting the precious ring.
Insured shipping in rigid packaging available worldwide. I apologize for the slightly higher shipping costs, but they are justified by the costs for insurance and for packaging.
