Couldn't load pickup availability
I am selling an assortment of antique jewelry which I have hunted for and gathered from around the world. Please see my other offerings - thanks for stopping by!
ABOUT:
These are the kinds of antique wedding bands that I seek out, not only for their sought after 100+ year old patina that can't be found on new gold, but also for the fact that...
The proof is in the pudding!
Or in this case, we could say, the provenance is present!
This antique wedding band is engraved inside, so we always know when and where it is from. IT reads:
"W.N. a A.B. 22 Juillet 1918 (or 1913?)"
Translating from the French of course to "WN to AB July, 22, 1818"
French hallmark for 18k.
Antique box not included. Please note the measurements as I have small fingers and it can be difficult to determine scale from pictures.
SIZE & MEASUREMENTS:
Size 6 3/4, slightly snug. It weighs 3.8 grams.
4mm north south, 1.6mm thick.
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Some surface wear as expected. Wonderful to find the engraving is large scale and fills the inside perimeter. There's a slight space between the end and the start of the engraving but sizing might be tough.
Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned and in estate condition. They will have patina, surface wear, a few small nicks. These pieces may also have evidence of a sizing, some build up around the stones and / or inclusions seen under magnification, typical for antique pieces. I have mentioned any noticeable issues above and they are all still wearable and eager to be loved and accepted for many years to come, (the preservation of antique jewelry, even those with signs of their age and history, is important to me. : )
But - Please note due to age, this piece is not in mint condition. Pictures also serve as part of the description and condition report so please utilize the zoom feature which will magnify any wear significantly more than what is visible to the eye while wearing : )
Thanks so much for looking at my items!
