The abstract and intricate design of this ring completely captures 1950s Modernist design. Stamped 585, which indicates 14K gold. However, I am unable to test this ring and am selling it as unknown material. It appears to be sterling, sterling plate, or white gold plate. The pearl appears to be cultured. Size 6.5.
This handsome cuff features an abstract design of two concave asymmetrical bands, linked by a single narrow applied strand. It’s quite comfortable to wear, and is constructed with flattened edges at the terminals to ease the fit over the wrist. Under the lacquered finish there is a soft patina indicating age with some oxidation that adds character, including a fingerprint. The maker’s mark is partial and as yet unidentified. It dates about 1970...
This ring is a size 11 1/2 (can be resized, of course). It has a cool design, almost foil-like (see pictures). It's just over 1/2" at its highest. It is marked 925. It's a wonderful piece in excellent condition.
