    Has anyone any idea where and when these snakering could be created and come from? The ring is gold coloured (yellow)but on the bottom o slight pink color. There are no hallmarks and there are 8 diamond pieces in a.o. as unsharpened eyes. I was told that it is a very old ring comes from Indonesia. Who can tell me something more about it or advise where I can go to ?

      not sure Agram.m, but I will post my snake ring later this week and maybe it will help someone to identify!

      Agram.m, again you've posted another treasure. Love this piece, very nice.
      The "snake" was used in the "Victorian" era as a symbol of every lasting love. I left a little out-take on these type of rings on Hunters posting, you might enjoy reading it.
