On This Day In 1961 - Vintage English 18K Gold Textured Wedding Band Ring. This wonderful wedding band is crafted from 18K yellow gold, hallmarked 18 for 18K, London assay, and a letter date 'e' for 1960.  The ring features vintage styling, full English hallmarks,  and quality craftsmanship. This unique wedding band exhibits a beautiful textured surround, which displays a rich gold aged patina. The ring is polished, and soooo smooth to the touch, which only comes with age. All the hallmarks are present on the inside of the ring, and a sentimental inscription, which reads YOURS ALONE 1 JULY 1961.  The band is solid, and comfortable to wear. This vintage wedding band would make a wonderful piece to be cherished and enjoyed for many years to come. 

Comments: Beautiful unique wedding band.
