Antique Wedding Band 23K Gold Sweden 1896 or 1898 Size 7.25 US

I'm so excited about these two - a pair of antique wedding bands in nearly pure 23K gold, born in Sweden in 1896 and 1898. Two sisters, two years apart, and both have that deep, buttery glow that only the very highest carat gold has - the color of late afternoon sun.

They have been worn smooth by lifetimes of love. No stones, no tricks, just honest high carat gold with softly domed profiles that feel like silk on the finger. This is the kind of ring you put on and never take off again.

Both carry their Swedish hallmarks inside - the cat's paw and the 23K stamp, crisp after more than a century - along with the sweet old engravings that date them. If you love decoding those little marks as much as I do, you can read every Swedish mark at The Hallmark Society.

Wear one alone, stack them with what you already own, or - my favorite thought - give the sisters a shared home. I have written about the wonderful history of these rings here: Wedding Band vs Engagement Ring

They weigh around 4 grams each and both fit like a size 7.25 US. Choose your ring by her year - 1896 or 1898 - at checkout.

Excellent condition with minor signs of age.

Please don't wait on these - antique high carat bands are the first thing to leave the shop, every single time.
