Description
Here we have a delightful and lasting memory for proposing to the love of your life (*Ring not included). This ring box is both discreet and humorous - after all both coal and diamonds are from carbon!. It was beautifully made by revered silversmiths in Birmingham but alas a mis-struck makers mark means we are unable to attribute the work to a specific manufacturer, let alone an individual. Nevertheless, the design registration mark is clear and could be traced, should the amateur sleuth in you wish to know more! That said, any description would be incomplete without highlighting the beautiful portrayal of the Famous Reynolds Angels on the front of this proposal token.
