I am selling an assortment of vintage to antique jewelry and rings which I have hunted for and gathered from around the world. Some examples seen in the last photo - thanks for stopping by!
ABOUT:
Color and sparkle! But it's also the setting that adds a little extra zhuzh to the piece. I just love the ring shoulders - this one is so lovely from all angles. Beautiful fabrication to this three stone ring that has the center natural octagonal cut emerald flanked by a chunky old mine cut diamond on each side.
Layers beautifully with the ornate band and the three stones raised in prongs.
I found this ring in Spain. It has no hallmarks which I found was quite common on pieces in Spain but tests at 18k gold. The ring has a triple reeded shank all the way around.
Antique Box not included.
Please note the measurements as I have small fingers and it can be difficult to determine scale from pictures.
MEASUREMENTS:
Size 7 3/4
Weighs 2.65 grams. The ring face is 5.9mm north south and 5.2mm tall to the crowns of the chunky old mine cuts.
The emerald is about 5mm and over half a carat at least.
The diamonds are about 3.9mm cushion cuts, about .3 each with their chunky cuts.
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
The edges of the shank feel a bit "edgy" when you run your hand across it. I do not find it uncomfortable to wear and stacking it would also help but just something to keep in mind as it might be felt if worn tightly on a finger. The stones are in excellent condition with no damage the emerald with a wonderful sheen and polish. The emerald is super secure, a worn prong here or there as expected for age holding the diamonds but none of the stones move, this is typical and something to keep an eye on over time. Some natural inclusions to the diamonds, one has a few indented natural inclusions that look like specks under magnification and the other has a crystal formation on one outside edge but nothing glaring to the eye.
Beautiful color and sparkle.
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 : )

Please feel free watch @mouseshouseantiques on Instagram for inventory drops, sneak peaks and previews! And check out my website www.MousesHouseAntiques.com as I can add more pics there so you can get extra looks : )
All items hand picked by me, one at a time from all over the world. All listings individually written by me, and not AI, after studying each piece to discuss its beauties and its ; ) eccentricities (which I am picky to point out).
Many of my listings include group shots – I find the comparisons between pieces help show scale, diamond hues, etc. All items in group shots are inventory, but refer to the website to see what items have sold out and to watch for new listings from the grouping to appear on the home page.
