This striking vintage snake ring by Uncas is crafted in yellow gold filled metal with white gold filled accents. The wrapped serpent design features a round green emerald simulant set in the head, accented by vivid red eye stones for dramatic contrast.
A section of the body beneath the head is finished in white gold fill, highlighting the sculptural form of the snake and adding visual depth. The surface is finely textured with small scale details, reflecting the quality craftsmanship for which Uncas is known.
In Victorian symbolism, the snake represents eternal love and devotion, making this design both meaningful and boldly expressive. The ring is unisex in style and has a strong presence without feeling bulky.
The ring remains in excellent vintage condition with bright gold filled surfaces and securely set stones. It is signed by Uncas Manufacturing Co. and marked on the shank “1/30 14k RGP,” confirming gold-filled construction.
