ABOUT:
Romantic Wedding Band with alternating panels of flowers and engraved rectangular sections all the way around. The inside of the ring is smooth with a cigar band fit, while the outside has subtle beveled panels. Warm rosy gold patina, tests at 10k gold. The piece has high shine areas above a pebble textured background that gives the low relief areas a matte finish.
Antique box is not included. Please note the measurements as I have small fingers and it can be difficult to determine scale from pictures.
MEASUREMENTS:
Size: 7 1/2
Weight: 3.1 grams
north south measurement: 9mm
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Wear and softening to the floral patterns and the engraved panels but still legible. Surface scratches that can catch the light due to the mirrored finish. A bit of a blunt edge when you run your finger across it from age and wear but I did not find it uncomfortable on the finger.
There are no dark spots to the gold, it was just difficult to photograph because it is so shiny and mirrored that it reflects its surroundings.
Some white residue making the low relief areas more of a matte pink color. I don't know if it soap residue in the recesses? I gave it a gentle cleaning but it may need more of a soak and gentle scrub unless that it just the patina of the textured gold.
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 : )
