   In the 1856 book "Inquire Within for Anything You Want to Know" by G.G. Evans, an symbolism if wearing rings on the left hand is described. A ring worn on the first finger signals a man desiring a wife, or a woman not spoken for. A ring worn the second finger signals an engaged person, and on the third finger a married person. A person who plans never to marry wears a ring on the little finger.

By custom, wedding rings are worn on the third finger of the left hand. In the 1856 book "Inquire Within for Anything You Want to Know" by G.G. Evans, two explanations are given for this custom. One goes back to Roman times, when a ring was worn on the fourth finger of the left hand because it was believed that a nerve ran from there to the heart. In Christian custom, the third finger symbolizes the Trinity.

Lovely Victorian turquoise pieces can be seen in Michael Poynder's book "Victorian Jewellery" on page 138 and in the book "Georgian Jewellery 1714-1830" by Dawes and Collins on pages 45. As can been seen in the pictures, the turquoise stones have aged to slightly different colors.

I love jewelry, but appraising and selling are two entirely different businesses, and I choose selling as my business.
Instead, articles are added on a regular basis to JEWEL CHAT on line Magazine, a wonderful reference for  information on many makers and styles of vintage jewelry.
