About the Item

A beautifully preserved example of Victorian mourning jewellery, this rare bog oak ring dates from the mid-to-late 19th century (c.1850s–1890s). Bog oak – fossilised ancient wood preserved for thousands of years in Irish bogs – was commonly used in mourning jewellery during the Victorian era due to its deep, dark tones and durability, making it suitable for intricate carving. It later gained popularity as everyday jewellery thanks to its fashionable, sombre hues. This rare mourning ring features a finely carved 40mm x 25mm figure in fossilised bog oak, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship. It is attached to a solid 9ct yellow gold band, hallmarked “9ct” and “GWW”. - Metal: 9ct 9k 375 Solid Yellow Gold (Stamped) - Ring Size : Q (AU/UK), 8 (US/CA) - Weight: 12.7 gram - SKU: KNE110925A2 Viewing and pickups are available at our Sydney CBD store.
