Antique Victorian 15kt. yellow gold coral ring, featuring a carved river God

About the Item

Antique Victorian 15kt. yellow gold coral ring, featuring a carved river God's head. Made in England, 1871 Fully hallmarked. The dimensions - Ring Size: Length x Width x depth: 3.5 x 3 x 1.2 cm Finger Size (UK) = T (EU) =61 (US) = 10 Weight: 19.00 grams The ring is pre-owned with minor signs of use, in good and pleasant condition overall. In the realm of symbolism, River Gods stand as majestic guardians, embodiments of the life force that flows through the veins of the Earth. These ancient deities, often depicted as powerful and venerable figures, symbolize the cyclical nature of existence, echoing the rhythmic flow of rivers that meander through landscapes, shaping and nourishing the world around them. The river, with its constant movement, becomes a metaphor for the passage of time and the ever-changing course of life. River Gods, as stewards of these flowing waters, are revered as both witnesses and orchestrators of this perpetual dance. Their presence signifies the dual nature of existence, representing both the serene and tumultuous aspects of life's journey. Furthermore, the River Gods embody the concept of renewal and purification. The cleansing power of rivers, washing away impurities and rejuvenating the land, mirrors the symbolic cleansing of the human spirit. Thus, these deities become purifiers of the soul, offering a metaphorical baptism into a renewed state of being. When considering the symbolism within rings, the circular form signifies eternity, a continuous and unbroken bond. This eternal aspect aligns with the enduring love and commitment symbolized by the River God, mirroring the unending flow of a river. Just as rivers connect different landscapes, the circular journey of life, encapsulated within the shape of a ring, symbolizes the interconnectedness of experiences and destinies. The River God, within the context of rings, could embody the guiding force, encouraging contemplation and introspection within relationships. In essence, the symbolism of River Gods and rings intertwines themes of enduring love, life's journey, purification, interconnectedness, and reflection. It merges the mythical and timeless aspects of River Gods with the profound symbolism inherent in the circular form of a ring, creating a narrative that speaks to the eternal nature of love and the interconnected dance of existence.
