We are excited to offer a unique Victorian-revival poison ring/ locket ring. This special ring opens so you can place a photo/ object/ love letter/ keepsake inside. It is likely from around the 1970s so it’s vintage. Due to the articulated mechanism, it is very very rare to find these in great functional condition AND even rarer to find one with a juicy garnet cabochon, ornate fleur de lis prong setting, and carved face. This ring is the definition of one-of-a-kind.
Why we love it
It is very rare to see locket rings or poison rings in general, and especially with a juicy garnet cabochon. This one has a very unique etched design and vampy vintage look. Similar examples made with less gold go for a much higher price than this but passing along the deal we got on this rare novelty jewelry piece. This piece is a hefty 8.4g.
Details
🤍 well-made and crafted of solid 14k gold and hefty at 8.4g
🤍 fits like a size 6, sizable, size 5.75 on the mandrel
🤍 likely from the 1970s (approx 60 years old)
🤍 14k hallmark has slightly faded but still visible, tested as 14k solid gold
🤍 hinge and closure are fully functional
🤍 in overall excellent preowned condition with minimal wear commensurate with age, the garnet cabochon has some mild hard-to-see scratches commensurate with age (60 years old), hinge and lock function well, setting is a bit skewed which has been factored into pricing, but this is not noticeable when worn and likely a feature since its construction and not a defect

Love my star charm! She’s the perfect addition to my stack!
I've missed out on a few drops in the past because I hesitated too long, but I finally snagged a little star. I picked up a beautiful yellow-green sapphire "fae fjord" shaped like a heart. Absolutely love the piece. It's solid, eye-catching, and just makes me happy. I'm looking forward to adding another in my collection. Please create some with garnets :)
Love love love. I have a few stars now and this one is even more amazing

I love my Little Star! The diamond has a soft, romantic glow, and the charm’s weight makes it feel truly substantial. The star points also make it the perfect little fidget — beautiful, playful, and grounding.
Absolutely lovely. The perfect star charm. Amazing communication and quick delivery.
Amazing! Worth every penny. Get on the wait list and adopt a star.
I hardly know where to begin with this piece; it truly takes my breath away. Beyond my personal sentiment, it is an heirloom-worthy treasure: exquisitely crafted, flawlessly executed, and designed with such elegant simplicity that it still makes a striking statement. The diamond itself is unlike anything I’ve ever seen, absolutely mesmerizing. Since receiving it, I’ve built every jewelry look around this pendant because I simply can’t bring myself to take it off.
Working with Tris made the entire experience even more meaningful. She was a dream to work with, patient, attentive, and always willing to go above and beyond to answer my questions. I am deeply grateful for her guidance and artistry, and I know I’ll be a lifelong client.
I love, love, love my OEC diamond star! The sparkly diamond and buttery 18k gold have elevated my go to neck stack. Could not be happier!
The little star is stunning. More beautiful at home than on instagram. And it was stunning on the gram. Mine has an opalescent sapphire and it is so beautiful and cool. And definitely an heirloom. I see myself passing this to my daughter one day. But until then it is all mine. Go get yourself on the waitlist and get a little star.
I received my star in the mail today and I gasped! It’s just sooo good.
Has a guaranteed spot on my neck. It’s just perfect. Thank you
I absolutely love my tiny star! I got to pick out the exact stone I wanted and she also gave amazing feedback on how it would look in the setting. Amazing customer service and super communicative. Easily my favorite piece of jewelry right now. Will be buying many more!
