An antique Edwardian H. Wexel sterling silver wedding band ring.
Wedding bells and flowers go all the way around the ring. Very pretty.
Marked "STERLING" and also marked with the Indian Chief Head
hallmark of H. Wexel & Co.. NOT a heavy band at all. The ring is
a size 7. I do not recommend trying to re-size this ring, as it will
disrupt the pattern's flow. This ring dates to around 1900.
H. Wexel & Co. was in business from the 1880s to 1907. I have sold
some Uncas wedding bands from the 1930s with a very similar pattern.
So the Wexel band pre-dates them.
Measurements:
Size: 7 (Please keep in mind that wider bands fit somewhat smaller)
Width: 5/16"
Weight: 2 grams
Condition:
---There is some wear to the ring due to age.
Please keep in mind that colors will vary slightly on different devices.
All jewelry comes gift boxed.
