18K yellow gold diamond red ruby double snake ring
The fact that the snake has wriggled its way into so many jewelry collectors is testament to our enduring fascination with this slippery creature. The snake has been a popular motif in jewelry since ancient Greek and Roman times. For the Celts, the snake represented secret knowledge while, for the Romans, it was seen as a guardian spirit and symbol of eternal life.
For sale a lively French made hefty double snake ring from the early 20th century. The ring features two twisted snakes, one with a diamond on its head, the other one with a red ruby.
