Historically snakes have always been revered as powerful symbols of rebirth and transformation, dating back to the early Egyptians. During the Victorian era serpent motifs came to symbolize eternal love. Snake jewelry and rings in particular became extremely popular in the mid-1800's due to widespread admiration for Queen Victoria's emerald-set snake engagement ring.
