Large Stone Amethyst and Gold Ring. (E10793) - For Sale

Large Stone Amethyst and Gold Ring. (E10793)
Price: $120.00
Antique amethyst ring. Superb stone with lovely colour. This lovely ring has faults to the mount. I have two of these rings, both with faulted mounts - several other items from the same family also had similar amethysts, so it would appear that a 19th century necklace was broken up and re-purposed as rings, brooches etc. It was once common practise to remodel jewellery into other items according to fashion - possibly the original necklace was damaged and so was dismantled.
This ring is mounted in 9ct gold, and has split design scroll shoulders and a pretty ball and loop mount around the stone - it's this ornate mount that is damaged. The stone is still held tightly, and is in no danger of falling out. Photos show the loss of the loops. Ring face measures 16 mm by 13 mm. Ring fitting is UK size J (USA size 4.3/4) with an internal diameter of 15.52 mm. Stone is in excellent condition.
