Vintage pale Green Oval Synthetic Spinel with Plaited Basket, 9ct Yellow Gold, size N or 6.75
Vintage pale Green Oval Synthetic Spinel with Plaited Basket, 9ct Yellow Gold, size N or 6.75
We love a good green and gold combo - they just seem to sing in a harmony better than a lot of other combos. And this pairing is particular special. The gold is yellow in its tone and this compliments the rosemary green of the stone beautifully. The oval synthetic spinel is a classic mid century choice for a cocktail ring. Because of the hallmarks, we would say this ring is a late 1970s beauty. The stone is held is a strong four claw setting and the basket is pretty special. Woven plaited gold strands wound around the base like a nest. There is still a build up of patina in between the deep grooves in the plaiting - but this can be polished out for a brighter look.

FAQ
Sizing
What do we mean when we say a ring is "sizeable"? Well, most standard rings can be made bigger or smaller by up to three letter sizes. If we say the item is "moderately sizeable", this usually means about 1 size, and if we say it is "not sizeable" or that "sizing is not recommended" it will be due to the construction - it could be age related, pattern related, have enamel etc.
We can happily help with sizing of rings, so please do get it touch if we can give you a quote.
