Step into the pure sentimental love of the late 18th century with this exquisite Georgian mourning ring, a deeply evocative relic of remembrance. Created in 15 carat gold, this ring is more than jewellery. It is moment of love and loss, frozen in time. 

At its heart is a glazed locket panel, behind which sits a painted urn, symbol of death’s permanence, beneath a drooping willow tree. The willow was seen as nature’s emblem of mourning, sorrow, and the passage of time. What makes this piece especially intimate is that the willow is created from human hair. A Georgian and Victorian practice that turns grief into art, making the departed physically present with the living.

Around the band in enamel and gold is the delicate inscription: “Will Bentley ob. 24 Nov 1781 æt 53” which translates as William Bentley died on 24 November 1781, aged 53. Given the quality of ring, he was off someone of moderate or better means, whose loved ones were able to commission such a ring of solid gold and enamel. 

We have been able to find some traces of William in the historical record. It seems he lived in Staffordshire England, and his burial is record on the 28th of the same month; we have included a copy of its hand written inscription.

Could be dangerous for smaller dogs
Color: Multicolour20
Most of the toys seem to be great, I have a yorkshire terrier and I noticed that on some of the toys that have small nubs and prices that he can focus on he is chewing off and eating which is not good for his little body so just be careful and pay attention to how they are using the toys so you don't end up at the vet with a problem you didn't expect

Great assortment at a low price!
Color: Multicolour20
Keeping a puppy engaged in toys can be rough but my puppy LOVES the assortment of toys that were included in this box! She is teething and the durability of the toys have held up well. The rubber materials are soft on her teeth and the rope toys appease her tug of war moments. Would 100% recommend for anyone looking for a good deal on toys.

Don’t leave your dog unsupervised with these!
Color: Multicolour20
Some of the toys I noticed break apart easily. I got these for my 4 month old puppy and they are definitely not chew resistant but he had so much fun playing with them. Some toys squeak. The toys are super cute but I don’t recommend letting your dog play with them without supervising because it can definitely be a choking hazard with how easily he tore them up. He normally doesn’t tear toys up easy so I won’t be buying again but he had fun with it while it lasted. Most toys had to be thrown away within 2-3 weeks.

these incredible aggressive chew toys – they've seriously been a game-changer for my pups! I know it's a bit late, but better late than never, right? I've got a couple of power chewers at home, a Rottweiler and a Labrador, and anyone with big dogs knows the struggle of finding toys that actually last. These bad boys have been in constant rotation for over a year now, and I'm genuinely impressed by their resilience. They're incredibly tough! Funnily enough, we originally had three, but now we're down to just one. The others aren't broken, though – I'm pretty sure my dogs just loved them so much they've hidden them away in some secret stash, as they tend to do with their favorite treasures! Beyond just being durable, these toys have been a massive help with their training. They’re fantastic for redirecting all that enthusiastic chewing away from my furniture and shoes, which, let's be honest, is a huge win for any pet parent! Considering how long they've held up to some serious chomping, the price point is absolutely spot on. You definitely get great value for your money.watch your toe they are heavy. If you've got a dog that's a champion chewer, you absolutely need to try these out. They're a lifesaver!
