Antique Art Deco Amethyst Cocktail Ring 💍 #jewellery #jewelrydesign #antique jewellery #fashion

Welcome to my channel again, my name is Kat and today I'll be talking a little bit about this beautiful Art Deco era cocktail ring. So it has been produced sometime between 1910 to 1930. As you would expect cocktail rings would be worn at parties and in such a way so that people could see the beautiful stone while you're holding the drink. The ring is a mixture of sterling silver and nine carat rose gold. Here you can look closely it's got also a mark for nine carat gold as you can see here and mixture of nine carat gold and sterling silver were quite typical during Art Deco era. So you can see it or you can find it with many cocktail rings produced at the time. Now let's look at the stone. Stone has got absolutely amazing spark. Look on the back it's got that kind of rose de France tone to it which is very desirable colour of the stone. It beautifully reflects the light and it doesn't really have any wear marks. We also have marker sides here. Marker sides are one of those stones that embellished many Art Deco jewelry pieces as you probably know very well if you are a fan of Art Deco jewelry. So the setting of the stone has got this milligrain design and it's like almost these very very tiny lines embellishing the setting. So this is used instead of cloths and then on the back what we can see here is the kind of cut out style in silver. Silver is very soft metal so this wouldn't be difficult to do and I've seen it in many different Art Deco designs. Some of them are slightly different. There are variations in this cut out style on the back. And then when it comes to size it's a size UK size OP and a US size 7.25. And this is quite regular average size so it does fit kind of a lovely young finger. As you can see I'm not as young anymore so I'm gonna have to use my smaller finger. But it's a it's a really good average size. Now the ring also comes with a vintage box. This is not Art Deco box or this is not original box but I like sometimes offer I like to offer the ring with the box. Sometimes having the ring in the vintage or antique box makes the whole thing rather more romantic you know experience. Especially if the ring is meant to be a gift for it definitely gives it another kind of level of experience.
