OMNIA VINCIT AMOR. Love conquers all. An incredible antique signet ring dating from the early 20th century, circa 1913. The oval head is set with a bloodstone panel with the words Love Conquers All engraved in Latin and mirrored so they can make a wax seal. With ornate floral engraved shoulders providing the perfect foil to the dramatic sans serif capital letters used on the face. It's a striking ring with one of the all-time most powerful messages.
