What an amazing ring this is! No sooner have you decided what it is (say, a flower) that it makes you think about something else! One wonders what exactly the craftsman had in mind when he fashioned this beautiful ring...
Whatever it reminds you of, you can be sure that the highest quality material was used to craft this fine piece of 18K solid gold jewelry.
The face of the ring resembles a flower. It is not really geometrical à la Déco since it is designed with curves and soft lines. It also features three little round beads on the shank. They seem to replicate the "petal" number. The interesting shank starts with the face of the ring as five gold threads, then develops into a regular solid gold mass. This means that the ring can be sized.
The ring weighs a hefty 7.1 grams and has a comfortable feel on the finger. It is in excellent vintage condition. Any white or cloudy spots on the item is glare and/or photographic obstructions.
