    Style
    Georgian - Georgian style is the name given in most English-speaking countries to the set of styles current between 1720 and 1840. It is eponymous for the first four British monarchs of the House of Hanover—George I of Great Britain, George II of GreatBritain, George III of the United Kingdom, and George IV of the United Kingdom—who reigned in continuous succession from August 1714 to June 1830.

    Style specifics
    A style that borrowed style specifics from the ancient Greeks and the Roman empire (hence the name of the style: Empire). The empire period represents the second part of the Neo-Classical style, and shows a strong French influence. The style originatedin the desire of Napoleon to revive the luxurious majesty of imperial Rome. Traditional classical motifs, already seen in the reign of Louis XVI, were supplemented by symbols of imperial grandeur- the emperor's monogram and his emblem, the bee;representations of military trophies; and after the successful campaigns in Egypt, Egyptian motifs. If we had to characterize this style briefly, we could focus on two elementary concepts: massiveness and symmetry.

    Theme
    Two fused hearts The heart has long been used as a symbol to refer to the spiritual, emotional, moral, and in the past also intellectual core of a human being. As the heart was once widely believed to be the seat of the human mind, the word heart continues to be usedpoetically to refer to the soul, and stylized depictions of hearts are extremely prevalent symbols representing love.

    Hallmarks
    On the underside of the exterior, there is a stamp that is difficult to discern: two V's with something in between, shaped somewhat like a structure with a pointed centre and flanking forms that resemble castle turrets. When viewed upside down, itresembles the upper half of a stamp. On the top side, there is a small lion's head facing left, dating from 1814 onwards.
    It is due to this illegible stamp that we suspect the ring is older than indicated by the lion's head mark. The shape and execution of this unreadable stamp clearly date from before 1800.
