an ode to floral eternity bands of the art nouveau era, this piece likely dates to the 1980s, though there's no apparent hallmark date. leafy z-like shapes alternate with flower-like prong-set stones meant to give the illusion of diamonds and rubies, but they're quite rustic white quartz and red/pink topaz
this ring was worn and loved and the semiprecious stones have the wear to prove it — please see photos and read condition description below

in good vintage condition
the semiprecious white quartz and red/pink topaz stones are very, very worn and left with a matte surface, rather than facets, which offers a visual softness
heavy patina throughout the setting, which gives the gold a brassier/rosier hue than its true base hue
prongs are all present and tight, but all have softened significantly reducing the overlap between prong and stone and some may need to be re-tipped if there's further wear or a stone starts to become loose in the setting
there is a solder seam, but not a break in the pattern, which hints at it being the original solder seam
this is a vintage item and will show surface scratches, dents, dings, dulling, wear, patina, and signs of having been worn and loved
