AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant vintage cocktail ring, presumably dating to the 1960s, characterized by a rich three-dimensional floral composition.
The top features numerous red faceted stones, mounted on multiple levels and arranged to form a very decorative floral/radial structure. The design is particularly dramatic and recalls mid-20th-century cocktail jewelry.
The setting on the reverse shows pierced work and a construction articulated into multiple assembled elements. The shank is simple and linear, in yellow-gold colored metal.
Total weight: about 6 g.
The red stones, by color and appearance, are presumably rubies, but have not been gemologically tested. The total carat weight is visually estimated at about 2.5–3.5 ct and has not been professionally measured.
No clearly legible hallmark was identified and the metal’s authenticity/title has not been professionally verified. The attribution to the 1960s and to American jewelry is based on the piece’s stylistic and construction characteristics and on the provenance of the object itself rather than on original documentation.
The jewelry is presented in good vintage condition, with normal slight signs of use compatible with its age.
