Description: About this Piece Size: 5 Length: 6mm x 15mmMaterial: 10k gold, natural agate Weight: 1.7 gramsMark: 10k inside of the band Era: Late Victorian / Edwardian Why You’ll Love It The organic beauty of nature comes alive in this antique ring. Its individual patterning catches your eye, as the marquise silhouette perfectly complements the stone–an intentional choice by the designer. Its striking shape is enhanced by the agate's beveled cut, a subtle yet distinctive design detail. Curvy flourishes along the shoulders of the 10k yellow gold band were specifically created to allow the stone to take center stage, making this piece all the more unique. Condition and Quality● Bright patina with minimal surface wear to the setting. No dents. ● Fresh sheen, light surface wear, and no chipping on the agate.● Secure, original band. Collector NoteOn Edwardian. The Edwardian period (also known as the Bell Epoch or beautiful era) from 1901 - 1910 was chiefly characterized by elegant, monochromatic designs in platinum, white gold, and silver, fitted with sparkling gemstones or glass. This was a time of affluence and progress for much of the world. As the Victorian era faded, traditionally-minded designers crafted pieces that felt as classic as Victorian jewelry but had a lighter feel and often ethereal look. Designs like the négligée necklace - asymmetrical and delicate - became popular. On Unique Shapes. Gemstones are time consuming to cut, requiring a high degree of skill from a trained craftsperson, and glass cabochons can be equally complicated to manufacture on a large scale while keeping costs down. These constraints are only a few of the reasons you often see similar shapes of stones used in jewelry. When an unusual shape or cut is used, the manufacturer has made a decision to make something different. Look for out-of-the-ordinary shapes, like the demilune for example, for a striking look as well as a unique find. _gsrx_vers_1653 (GS 9.7.5 (1653))
