Human hair pattern in a gold ring? Yep! During the gold rush of the mid-1800s, many Americans joined in the gold fever by purchasing inexpensive jewelry. This ring, made between 1840 and 1890, features a braided hair pattern that would have had a special appeal to Americans at the time.
During the Victorian period, hair jewelry was often made by women as a parlor activity, similar to crocheting or knitting. The use of hair appealed to a sense of Victorian sentimentality, of keeping a loved one close, and was used in brooches, rings, necklaces, and wall décor.
