The ring features decorative shoulders with cast foliate motifs, including stylised leaves and buds, which taper into a plain D-section band. The interior of the shank is incised with the characters 925, indicating the item is sterling silver. The design and foliate metalwork are characteristic of pieces attributed to the jeweller Bernard Instone.
