A remarkable and deeply personal Georgian mourning ring. Created around 1771 to commemorate the life of Benjamin Walmsley by those who loved him dearly. 

Created in rich, buttery 18ct gold, the ring is decorated with a band of white enamel. A significant detail in Georgian mourning jewellery, traditionally used to for unmarried individual. The contrast between the luminous gold lettering and the soft white enamel is both striking and elegant.

The band bears the dedication: “Ben Walmsley died _ Aug 1771 Aged 44” Simple and profoundly human, the inscription captures a moment of loss preserved across more than two centuries.

What makes this piece particularly special is its connection to historical record. Ben Walmsley can be traced to Lancashire, England ~ baptised on 18th June to parents Joshua and Ellen, and later buried in Rochdale at the Church of St Chad. Records note him as residing in Goose Lane, a rural setting with only a handful of homes , offering a poignant glimpse into the quiet life behind the name.

Rings such as this were intimate tokens of remembrance, worn daily to honour and keep close the memory of a loved one. The survival of both the ring and its story creates a powerful link between past and present.

My doxins loved these toys. I loved them more that there was no stuffing mess to clean up! Good squeaker noise. Soft for their gums

Worth it if your dog destroys plush toys & likes to chew
Color: Cyan NylonFish
My dog is a very big chewer and destroyer of toys. This toy is perfect for her. It is durable and keeps her engaged chewing for a while. I have a 55lb dog, considered a large dog, and it’s a great size for her. She’s unable to break it apart. The ends do tend to get a little sharp after extended use

My Boston loves this fish toy
Color: Cyan NylonFish
Very durable. It takes a couple of months of intense chewing to make holes in this toy. My Boston has incredible mouth strength so he destroys most toys in minutes unless they are rocks. I have replaced this fish 2 times in the last year. I keep an eye on the wear and replace it when he makes a hole in it. Worthwhile purchase but monitor the dogs chewing.

Great sturdy toy
Color: Cyan NylonFish
Great toy. 1 yr old puppy LOVES it! However, not good for TILE FLOORS. It's so strong and sturdy but bangs all over the tile! Enough to crack tiles 😬

American Bully Trial - Honest Review
Color: Cyan NylonFish
I have never gotten a toy that lasted more than an hour when it comes to my baby girl. She is an aggressive chewer and loves anything that squeaks. This definitely helped to keep her entertained and use her teeth. I can confidently say that this toy may last a long time but she has already ripped a piece from it. I didn’t expect anything less since she always knows how to test new toys lol. I would definitely recommend though and will be getting more for her once this one is gone. Thank you!
