Fine early Georgian white enamel and 22 carat mourning ring for Sir John Armytage Baronet dated 1732.

The text reads ‘I.Armytage Bt Ob 2 De 1732 Aet 72’.

An unusual 1730s style formed of sections of enamelled text divided by smaller reeded plain gold sections.

The white enamel has mellowed to a rather subtle lilac grey surface. C18th white enamel does age in a very particular way and rarely chips like black enamel, it rather fades to a matt eggshell.

Size 7 3/4.

Weight 4.8grams
