Antique 10K Gold "Eye of Shiva" Operculum Shell Ring
This captivating antique ring features a natural "Eye of Shiva" operculum shell, which is notably brighter in color than most. The shell is set in a solid 10K gold mounting, and while it is secure, it is also slightly loose. The operculum is the trapdoor of a sea snail, with its striking spiral pattern giving it its name and resemblance to the third eye of the Hindu god Shiva. In folklore, these shells are considered to be "Mermaid's Money," bringing good luck to travelers and providing protection against evil. The use of operculum in jewelry became popular in the Victorian and Edwardian eras.
This ring is about a size 6.25 and measures approximately 3/4 inch wide.
This piece is a unique and meaningful piece of history, marked "10K" and "N in a circle."
