Description: This is a Wonderful 18ct 18k Gold English Fede Gimmel Ring.
The design of these rings dates back to the 12th century although they were also given as engagement rings in europe during renaissance times.

You will find examples of early Fede rings in museum collections around the world including the Victoria and Albert Museum and also Birmingham Museum.
The head of the ring with the clasped hands is known as Fede and the fact that it is composed of three interlocking rings fitting together also makes this a Gimmel ring.
The ring holds a secret - when removed from the finger you may pull the hands apart to reveal a hidden heart that lies underneath the clapsed hands making this a lovely romantic gesture to give to a loved one.
