Overview:
Lovely vintage Art Deco era small signet ring (circa 1923), crafted in 9 karat rose gold.
The small oval signet is engraved with the initials "MS". The ring was likely made for a child and is suitable to wear as a pinky ring (it can also be resized). The ring sits flat on the finger, rising 1.25mm from the finger (0.04 inches). The ring dates to 1923 with full English hallmarks (see below).
The ring is in good condition with patina and wear evident (light scratches to the gold). We have not cleaned the ring in order to preserve the patina and collector value.

Size & Measurements: The ring is a size 5 (sizable). The oval signet mount measures 8.5mm in length (0.33 inches) and 7.5mm wide (0.29 inches) rising 1.25mm from the finger.
