Description
Abraham Lincoln: An Exceptional Cameo Portrait Ring Set In 14 Karat White Gold. A unique profile image of Lincoln that we have never encountered before. Black onyx background suggests that the ring is probably a memorial item, although the popularity of black on white cameos during the Victorian period was such that this should not necessarily be presumed. The fine detail work on the gold setting and the quality of the cameo image itself are exceptional. Condition is excellent. Cameo measures 14mm x 20mm. The ring is housed in a vintage, but not original, ring box from an Ohio jeweler. From the Edward C. Gillette Collection.Auction Info
