Welcome to The Onio Archives!
This listing is for a vintage 14k gold Claddagh ring that weighs a heavy 10.87g! It’s a size 10.75 and can be resized by your local jeweler if needed. The Claddagh ring meaning is all about love, loyalty, and friendship. The two hands represent friendship, a heart symbolizes love and the crown on top is for loyalty. I believe this would have been marketed as a men's ring when it was released, but it would be a great high, quality ring for anyone with larger fingers!
This collectable vintage ring is in very good vintage condition with some small scuff marks/scratches to be expected (and can be buffed out!) of vintage and pre-owned jewelry. This gorgeous estate piece is a perfect addition to any collection and would make a great gift for a loved one!
Shop Notes
I’m a lawyer with a passion for all things vintage. After opening my vintage home goods shop on Etsy, The Onio Collection (check it out!) I decided to venture into the jewelry business. I am a hobbyist/collector and many items I sell are from my own collection. I also source pieces from all over the country and will occasionally sprinkle in some modern items that I have designed or made myself using estate gemstones.
The Onio Archives is a collection of unique, timeless jewelry that has been carefully curated to fit a variety of styles and budgets. I do my best to identify each piece while keeping costs low for the buyer. This means that I do a ton of research and some testing of each item (such as a diamond tester, magnets, a jewelry scale, and a few different types of magnification) but please keep in mind that this is not my area of expertise, I am not a professional jeweler, and there’s a chance that I could miss the mark. Carat weight and other details are especially difficult when working with stones that are already placed in a setting.
If you would like to see additional photos or a video of any item, please let me know and I would be happy to provide those. I try to photograph and note any imperfections I find, and it is unlikely that any vintage or antique item will be in mint condition. I encourage all buyers to take their jewelry for regular maintenance with their local jeweler.
Please feel free to contact me with questions, requests, or offers! I am happy to provide discounts to those purchasing multiple items, and I am always open to reasonable offers to purchase the items in my shop.
