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

Let customers speak for us
from 79 reviewsI am beyond pleased with my Little Star! Not only was picking her out easy and fun, but communicating with Patricia was too! The quality is wonderful with every tiny detail being perfect. A one of one piece like this at this price point is truly unbeatable! I am so excited to have my star forever and ever! I cannot recommend this shopping experience enough!!!
I purchased the Emma M. Lion 18K Mother Star (Teal Heart Sapphire in matte finish) during the most recent drop. I am beyond thrilled with the beauty, craftsmanship, and obvious care put into this perfect star charm. I have come across many star pendants throughout the years, but this is top-tier amazing! I now fully understand why people have several in their collection! The packaging was also carefully crafted with thoughtful intention. It is truly worth holding out for one and not settling on cheaper, subpar dupes. I look forward to adding to my collection from future drops!
I’d been admiring these stars for a while and I’m so glad I finally decided to buy one. Whether alone or on a stack, it shines bright. I’ll never take it off!
My Little star makes me so happy! It’s a beautiful solid piece with perfectly twinkly diamond. I’ve been wearing it non-stop since it arrived. It’s a wonderful tactile experience, like my own little worry stone!
Patricia’s little stars are my absolute FAVORITE piece of jewelry. They are so well-made and have such a satisfying weight to them. They are all different, so every star is special and unique, and the stones she chooses are so perfect and beautiful!
My purchase was an antique sterling graphic sun medallion. I love it. I also enjoyed my interaction with Priscilla who is very helpful with questions and requests. Thanks ladies!
I’m in love with this little golden star! To me, it is the perfect pendant. Simple, elegant, brilliant and unique. Thank you!
I have been eyeing a Little Star for a while and the timing just so happened to align for me to acquire my first. The most gorgeous dainty little star that is so well-crafted. My new daily driver.
I am completely obsessed with my Little Star. I've wanted one for a while and was finally able to make it happen. It's a gorgeous piece that feels weighty and solid in hand. It looks stunning solo on a chain and I can't wait to play with layering it with other charms. It is definitely a life-long love.
Patricia was extremely gracious in our interactions which was simply a lovely touch.♥️ Also, delivery was secure and efficient with the ring 💍 being true to description. It has become one of my absolute favourite rings!! ✨✨✨
I just received my 10k rose gold and reclaimed ruby Little Star and I love her so much already. Weighty, smooth, vivid-- she's got it all. I'm so grateful! I'll be wearing this one every day.
Tris & Rue is my absolute favorite source for fine jewelry. Tris is extremely knowledgeable. She knew exactly what I was looking for and sold me the signet ring of my DREAMS. It’s the most stunning piece of 18k butter I have ever had the pleasure of wearing - soft, comfortable, weighty and beautiful ❤️
Amazing amazing customer service. My tiny star is such a work of art. Couldn't be happier with her! ⭐️
Obscenely gorgeous piece that is of the highest quality and craftmanship! Gem quality ruby and buttery smooth gold! A collectors item for the ages!
Star looks fabulous in person. It’s exactly what I pictured. Don’t hesitate to order. What you see is what you get but better😊
