Step into the pure sentimental love of the late 18th century with this exquisite Georgian mourning ring, a deeply evocative relic of remembrance. Created in 15 carat gold, this ring is more than jewellery. It is moment of love and loss, frozen in time. 

At its heart is a glazed locket panel, behind which sits a painted urn, symbol of death’s permanence, beneath a drooping willow tree. The willow was seen as nature’s emblem of mourning, sorrow, and the passage of time. What makes this piece especially intimate is that the willow is created from human hair. A Georgian and Victorian practice that turns grief into art, making the departed physically present with the living.

Around the band in enamel and gold is the delicate inscription: “Will Bentley ob. 24 Nov 1781 æt 53” which translates as William Bentley died on 24 November 1781, aged 53. Given the quality of ring, he was off someone of moderate or better means, whose loved ones were able to commission such a ring of solid gold and enamel. 

We have been able to find some traces of William in the historical record. It seems he lived in Staffordshire England, and his burial is record on the 28th of the same month; we have included a copy of its hand written inscription.

A Versatile and Elegant Solution for Room Separation
I recently purchased the GOFLAME 8 Panel Room Divider, and I'm thoroughly impressed with its quality and design. This room divider is not only a decorative element, but it also provides a practical solution for creating distinct areas within a room. Here's why I'm giving it a 5-star review: Enhanced Privacy Space: The 6 ft tall room divider is perfect for creating a private space within a larger room. It's ideal for my home office, and I can use it to separate my workspace from the rest of the room. The screen also creates a cozy and intimate atmosphere, making it perfect for relaxing or reading. Hand-woven Texture: The unique hand-woven texture of the room divider adds an element of sophistication and warmth to my room. The intricate craftsmanship is impressive, and it exudes artisanal charm. I love the way it looks, and it's become a conversation piece in my home. Built with Strength: The solid wood frame is sturdy and well-constructed, providing reliable support for the room divider. I'm impressed by the attention to detail and the quality of the materials used. Foldable Design and Easy Storage: The foldable design of the room divider makes it easy to store when not in use. I can simply fold the panels flat and store them away, which is convenient and space-saving. The metal hinges that connect the panels are also sturdy and well-made. No Assembly Required: I was pleasantly surprised to find that the room divider requires no assembly. I simply took it out of the box and set it up, and it was ready to use. The smooth woven surface is also easy to clean and maintain. Overall Impression: I'm thoroughly impressed with the GOFLAME 8 Panel Room Divider. It's a stylish and functional solution for creating a private space within a larger room. The hand-woven texture and solid wood frame add an element of sophistication and warmth, and the foldable design makes it easy to store. I
