AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This exceptional vintage women’s ring is a striking example of fine Scandinavian jewellery craftsmanship from the 20th century, originating from Sweden and dating to the era 1900–2000. Crafted in luxurious 23 karat yellow gold, the ring immediately stands out for its rich, warm tone and substantial feel, with a total weight of 5.23 grams, reflecting both quality and durability. High-karat gold of this purity is rarely used in modern jewellery, making this piece especially desirable to collectors and connoisseurs seeking authentic, high-end vintage gold jewellery.

At the heart of the design sits a natural emerald, weighing approximately 0.12 carats, securely set in a white gold or platinum-topped setting that creates a beautiful contrast against the deep yellow gold band. The emerald displays a classic green hue, prized for its natural character and timeless association with elegance, renewal, and luxury. Emeralds have long been favored in European fine jewellery, particularly in Nordic and continental designs, where understated refinement and quality materials take precedence.

Flanking the emerald are four natural diamonds, with a combined weight of approximately 0.04 carats. These diamonds add subtle brilliance and depth to the ring, enhancing the central gemstone without overpowering it. Their placement creates a balanced, symmetrical look that reflects traditional craftsmanship and a refined aesthetic, typical of high-quality vintage brand jewellery. The total carat weight of all stones combined is 0.18 carats, offering a harmonious blend of color and sparkle.

The ring’s design is further elevated by elegant decorative details on the top setting, including delicate scroll-like motifs that give the piece character and a sense of artistry. This blend of yellow gold, white metal accents, emerald, and diamonds results in a sophisticated, timeless look suitable for both daily wear and special occasions. The ring is made specifically for women and embodies a classic yet distinctive style that transcends passing trends.

Presented in excellent condition, the ring shows minimal signs of wear, indicating careful ownership and preservation over the years. It is a brand jewellery piece, underscoring its quality and craftsmanship, even though no laboratory report is included. The ring size is 56 (EU) / 16 (IT) / 7½ (US), and free resizing is offered, making it a versatile and accessible choice for many collectors and wearers.

This vintage Swedish emerald and diamond ring is an outstanding addition to any fine jewellery collection, appealing to buyers searching for vintage gold rings, emerald diamond rings, Scandinavian jewellery, high-karat gold jewellery, or collectible women’s rings. With its rare 23 kt gold fineness, natural gemstones, elegant design, and European provenance, this ring represents a compelling opportunity to acquire a refined and enduring piece of classic luxury jewellery.
