Description from the seller
Vintage ring circa 1960 in 18-carat gold – Chrysoprase cabochon 11.50 ct – 10.70 g
Remarkable vintage jewelry ring dating from circa 1960, made in 18-carat gold / 750, representative of the jewelry aesthetics of that period.
The ring is dominated by a superb chrysoprase of 11.50 carats, cut as an oval cabochon. Its intense and luminous green color, combined with the generous proportions of the stone, gives it a particularly elegant presence.
The setting is one of the most distinctive elements of this creation: gold is worked into a pierced architecture with multiple branches, rising progressively towards the cabochon. This sculptural and airy construction perfectly fits the aesthetics of the 1950s-1960s, a period in jewelry marked by generous volumes, graphic lines, and the highlighting of large colored stones.
With a total weight of 10.70 grams and an 11.50 ct chrysoprase, this ring offers a remarkable presence on the finger while maintaining an elegant and balanced line.
A piece of character, destined for lovers of vintage jewelry, colored stones, and jewelry with a bold design.
