A Victorian double-serpent band in 18-karat yellow gold, with two heads meeting at the bezel — each set with a pair of old mine diamond eyes totaling approximately 0.18 carats in J–K color and SI–I clarity. The body is built from three parallel gold ribs that read as the serpents' interlocked coils, the heads finished with subtle hand-chasing to define the brow and jaw. Diamond-eyed snake rings in this format were a staple of British and European workshops in the 1880s and 1890s making this a textbook late-Victorian example.
