DATE: Victorian, c.1890

An unusual and quite charming antique MIZPAH ring dating from the late Victorian era, circa 1890. The lettering is big and bold, covering the whole width of the band, and finished in bright turquoise enamel. It's crafted in sterling silver, with Birmingham hallmarks, it will likely have been exchanged as a "gesture of good will" between two reconciled parties.
