C. 2000's. Remarkably thick, heavyweight sterling silver cigar band. This ring was likely hand carved, with gorgeous tapers and curves. The outer surface has a perfect dome, and the inside is rounded and very smooth, with a breathable comfort fit. This piece is a grounding force, heavy, like a constant reminder. The brass maker's mark is soldered to the outside of the band and can be worn on the front or the back. The mix of metals is a subtle, offbeat touch to this dynamic design. English hallmarks and purity stamped on the inside of the ring.
From the London estate of fashion maven Fiona Ronaldson, who served as buying director for Harvey Nichols in the 1980's, and editor-in-chief for Joyce Magazine Hong Kong in the 1990's.
