Stunning! Stunning!! STUNNING!!! Is there a lover of purple in your life? A February birthday girl? (Is it you?) Look no further! This is an exceptional piece! This ring hails from London, though it is not hallmarked in the typical British way-- I believe it to be European in origin but not necessarily British-- it could be Italian as 18K is the minimum gold content for rings manufactured in Italy. It might also be Australian. It is an earlier piece, handmade, and quite hefty at 5.3 grams. The amethyst is about 2.5 carats, oval cut, approx 10X8. I only buy amethysts that are richly saturated and this one has an absolutely beautiful violet color with flashes of a more raspberry hue. It is in fabulous condition. Surrounding it are 12 single cut diamonds (about 1 point each) in a hand chased modified halo setting-- the diamonds are held in what look like stylized petals of white gold. Just gorgeous! The style truly represents the movement toward Art Deco as the face of the ring is typical of Victorian pieces, but the geometric halo indicates more modern design elements. The size is 7.5 and it can be easily sized up or down two sizes by your jeweler. It will ship in a beautiful box suitable for gift giving. I will entertain reasonable offers on this item!
