I saw this ring on Etsy and fell in love. It’s way too big for me as my fingers are about US 5.75 but isn’t it unusual?

This ring is insane! It dates to the Victorian era when people of means went on “Grand Tours” in Europe and brought back lava jewelry from places like Italy as souvenirs. This piece is quite rare. It features 7 Roman gods/goddesses that represent that 7 days of the week. Each one is carved out of a different color stone (lava) or coral. Highly detailed workmanship. Perfect piece for a collector of Victorian jewels.

Excellent antique condition.

Not stamped but tests for at least 14k gold.

3.67g in weight

Size 9.0 US; can not be sized.
