AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Are you looking for a piece of jewelry with a fascinating history and a unique, regal aesthetic?
This beautiful vintage gold ring is an authentic piece of history from the Soviet Union (USSR). The ring is set with a royal purple, faceted gemstone (synthetic amethyst/corund) that comes beautifully to life in a raised chaton setting. The shoulders of the ring are masterfully open-worked with a refined filigree and scroll pattern, giving the ring an elegant yet powerful appearance.
The exterior of the ring contains a wealth of official, historic hallmarks. In the rectangular hallmark window sits the five-pointed star with hammer and sickle, combined with the content 583. This number stands for the famed Soviet 14-karat gold (58.3% pure gold), which due to the specific addition of copper has the characteristic warm red-gold (rose) glow. To the left of the star is the Cyrillic letter 'С', the official mark of the Office for State Supervision of the Urals in Sverdlovsk (the present-day Yekaterinburg).
Additionally, the ring in the flag-shaped stamp bears the coded master mark .3СЮ. This proves that this ring was manufactured and certified in 1973 by the Sverdlovsk Jewelry Factory, one of the most prominent state-owned companies for luxury gold jewelry in the USSR. With a weight of 4.3 grams and a ring size of 17.5 mm, you wear with this ring a solid, rare and definitive historical eye-catcher.
