Description

This striking piece captures the essence of Mid-Century Modernist design, a genre that emerged in the mid-20th century prioritizing clean lines, organic shapes, and a departure from traditional ornate filigree. The ring features a large, luminous cabochon of butterscotch Baltic amber, a fossilized resin prized for millennia for its warm, golden-orange glow and natural inclusions. The stone is securely housed in a smooth bezel setting, surrounded by a distinct, textured oval halo that showcases the hand-wrought craftsmanship characteristic of the era.

The sterling silver construction is evidenced by the Polish hallmarks found on the exterior of the band, including the "K" and female head mark signifying 925 silver purity from the Krakow assay office. This substantial ring weighs 5.9 grams and offers a bold presence on the finger without sacrificing comfort. The setting measures approximately 1 x 11/16" in length, creating an elongated profile that flatters the hand. At a size 7 1/2, this ring serves as a sophisticated bridge between vintage artistry and contemporary style, making it a timeless addition to any collection of European silver.

Vintage Condition & Care: All items listed are previously owned and used unless otherwise stated. Please expect signs of wear such as scuffs, blemishes, or imperfections.

Fixed size. Do not resize. The heat needed to cut and rejoin the shank damages set stones, and turquoise and inlay in particular will craze, discolour or lift out of the bezel.
