At once patrician and down-to-earth, the stirrup is no stranger to being elevated in style as it is in this gold ring. Whether you've always been a horsey girl or are low-key afraid of the large and powerful animals, there's something so appealing and aspirational about the trappings and accoutrements of of horseback riding, and this ring is a dream no matter where you find yourself on the horse-loving continuum. Now excuse me while I go watch YouTube videos of dressage synched with hip hop.

Very good vintage condition.
