For millennia, the precious metal has been associated with with the glow and power of the sun, and high karat gold makes the connection clear. The saturated hue has a beautiful warmth and shine.

Gold alloys are softer in higher karats, so this old ring has developed some lovely wear over its lifetime with all the little scratches and dings that can't be replicated in a modern piece. While band rings are easy to resize, and often bear evidence of past resizing, we don't recommend it for this ring as that beautiful patina would be lost. This particular ring appears to have been sized up by light stretching, and time and wear have pushed it a little out of shape - resulting in a dip that, as though by kismet, snuggles subtly yet perfectly around stone-set rings.

We just adore the quiet luxury of high karat gold - a simple, stoneless band in a completely timeless style.

Good vintage condition.
