Gold posy ring, 'I have obtained whome God ordained'. A yellow gold D-shape band, the exterior engraved around the full circumference with a scrolling stylised foliate design, the interior engraved in italic script 'I have obtained whome God ordained', approximately 4.4mm in width. Tested yellow gold, approximately 4.84 grams in weight, maker's mark 'SV' within a square punchmark with crown to top, circa 1700.
