A wedding band in 23K gold - nearly pure, with that deep, buttery warmth you only find in the oldest Scandinavian pieces - made in Uppsala and hallmarked for 1896. All the way around her runs a hand-engraved band of flowers and foliage, softened just enough by a century of wear to feel like velvet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe carries her full set of Swedish hallmarks - you can read them yourself in my hallmark encyclopedia: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hallmarksociety.com\/hallmarks\/sweden\"\u003eSwedish Hallmarks\u003c\/a\u003e - and inside, the inscription from the woman who first wore her in 1896. I have written about why these old bands carry so much meaning here: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/oldmineshop.com\/blogs\/journal\/wedding-band-vs-engagement-ring\"\u003eWedding Band vs. Engagement Ring\u003c\/a\u003e - and about the long story of how rings came to mean forever here: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/oldmineshop.com\/blogs\/journal\/the-history-of-the-engagement-ring\"\u003eThe History of the Engagement Ring\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe weighs around 5 grams, fits like a size 6.75 US, and her band is ever so slightly asymmetrical - a little tell of a long life well loved, nothing you feel or see on the hand. Any coloured areas you might spot in the photos are just reflections from the surroundings - she is all warm gold. She is in excellent condition with normal signs of age for her 130 years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oldmine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60871857144142,"sku":"AUC-5347579","price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1050\/3775\/8798\/files\/2ce6a8f8e02dc4d2ec4f5e0d00a51763.jpg?v=1791556740","url":"https:\/\/oldmineshop.com\/products\/magnificent-antique-23k-gold-wedding-band-uppsala-1896","provider":"Oldmine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
