This antique rose gold-filled ring with a design of clasped hands is referred to as Mizpah or Fede (faith) and symbolizes the love and closeness of partners or family members. The ring is 5/16" wide at the center front; each hand ends in a buttoned shirt cuff and jacket hem. The size is size 9 – a rare find in antique jewelry which usually runs small. (The thin silver band at the back suggests the ring was resized.) Except at the back seams, finish throughout is gold with very thin surface scuffs. Whether as a gift exchanged by lovers or family members, the fede ring carries a deep message of connection and caring across the miles.
