Vintage 9ct Solid Gold Encircled Ring

Very unusual 9ct gold ring. With a design of houses, hillsides, and follies, encircling the whole ring. Fully stamped with makers mark GWN AND 375.

This striking solid gold ring is crafted with a fully encircled design across the band, featuring a continuous motif that wraps 360° around the finger — giving it a sculptural, tactile quality rather than a plain band. The surface imagery has subtle relief and texture, moving beyond minimalism into a piece that feels almost like wearable art.

It is made from solid gold and bears clear hallmarks on the inside of the shank, matching the original marks on the standard version — confirming the purity and maker information. These stamps typically include the millesimal mark (e.g. “375” for 9‑carat gold) and a recognised assay or sponsor’s mark, indicating it has been tested and officially hallmarked according to jewellery standards.

Specifics:

Ring Size: UK K
Weight: ~2.72 grams
Material: Solid gold (not plated, substantial metal feel)
Hallmarks: Clear makers and purity stamps on the interior — a key sign of genuine gold and quality craftsmanship.

This isn’t a flimsy costume piece — it’s a proper solid gold ring, hallmarked and weighty enough to give confidence and longevity. It’s the kind of piece that works both as everyday wear and as a subtle statement thanks to the detailed encircling design.
