A rare and wonderful Art Nouveau era wide band ring, modeled in 14k yellow gold, whose face is decorated with a series of images (in relief) that represent the astrological sign Cancer. Among these beautifully carved figures is a gentle crab, a pair of wild roses, and Cancer's astrological glyph. The carving here is masterful, highly detailed and textural— each design element is strong enough to be worn facing forward, as the centerpiece of the ring (the rose, the crab, the glyph), and all are married by the foliage of the roses, which twines among them and behind them. This ring would make a very special gift for a beloved Cancerian, and a fine tribute if worn to keep someone born under this sign close. Marked 14k for purity.
