these rings are so sweet -- I feel lucky to own this one, even if only to find its permanent home

this one is very old, likely dating to the mid-1800s. it's a mix of repousse and engraved details, with flush-set stones or enamel in the stylized cuffs that have seen better days

this ring has survived more than a century, but it's on the more delicate side as the band is very very thin

solid 10k rose gold, unmarked

2mm rise off the finger where the hands are

in good antique condition

it's a wonder that this ring has survived through so many eras. it has plenty of quirks to prove its antiquity:
-slightly bent out of rond
-all six flush set stones or enamel are either chipped or have heavy surface wear
-heavy patina
-paper thin band (this is an original quirk)
-noticeable sizing area at the base of the band
-scratches, dents and dings to the surface of the gold

I have not cleaned this ring and it would benefit from a cleaning if you prefer your antique jewelry shiny
