Coquette Sterling Silver Cameo Ring 7 ½ Antique Lord Nelson Marina Chintz

This sterling silver cameo style ring is a piece from my Coquette aesthetic collection. It features a hand shaped cabochon of antique Lord Nelson, Marina Chintz, bone china, that has been bezel set and framed with hand formed sterling silver rope. I finished it with an antique style patina that really makes the roses pop. The ring shank is a double band, and the setting has a closed back which helps protect the beautiful cabochon and also adds substantial silver weight to the piece. This ring is size 7 ½ and I’ll be listing more in this style, so if you need a different size, check back again soon.

The Coquette Aesthetic

One of the newest fashion trends hitting international runways lately is “Coquette”. Like the meaning of this French word, the aesthetic is everything feminine, flirty, and romantic, with a touch of vintage and Victorian. Think florals, lace, ruffles and corsets combined with luxury and high-end quality. I fell in love with the runway clothing, but realized no one is creating beautiful jewelry to go with it. After searching “Coquette jewelry”, I could only find a few cheap beaded necklaces, lots of heart pendants, and not much else. I knew I could create quality sterling silver jewelry to compliment the clothing perfectly. I use genuine antique china and vintage porcelain cameos from my personal collection, all of which date from the 1800s to the 1940s.
