Description
This is a beautiful 18k solid gold ring with a large gem silica cabochon. It is a simple but elegant design with a single row of tiny gold balls around the bezel. The band has fine details as well with a single row of gold balls down the middle framed by twisted wire.
The gem silica in this ring is from the Inspiration mine in Arizona. It has a beautiful deep blue color and is pure translucent top-grade material and is no longer available except in small quantities from collections that come to light from time to time (for more info see link below).
The ring at its widest point is approx. 7/16” wide (at the front – top to bottom) and the band is approx. 3/16” wide at the back. (See photo with older U.S. dime for size/scale.)
