14 K Gold & Ruby Ring
$199.00
Marked “14 K” on the inside, along with what looks like a sideways “V” (the maker’s mark).

Note that this IS indeed a genuine ruby, as confirmed with my very qualified jeweler, who is also a GIA-certified gemologist.

This absolutely WONDERFUL 14 K gold ring features a fabulous, sleek, WIDE openwork abstract / post World War II Retro Modernistic design with an oval piece of coral in the front! Measures OVER ¾ of an inch wide in the front; it is about a ring size 9, but could be made a bit smaller if desired by a skilled jeweler. The coral stone measures about 9/16 of an inch tall (just over ½ an inch tall) by about ¼ of an inch wide. This piece weighs in at 5.3 grams. Note that this ring is not marked for its gold content but it DOES test positive as 14 K gold with professional jewelers’ touchstone & testing acids. This piece is in very good condition, with some very fine, light scratching to the gold & the coral due to age, but this is NOT at all noticeable unless one really scrutinizes the piece VERY closely, under bright light. Overall, very good condition! Looks AMAZING on!
$55.00
Marked "925" on the inside (for Sterling Silver); features a fabulous, intricate design with a rich emerald green heart-shaped stone in the center! The ring measures about 3/8 of an inch wide in the front; it is about a ring size 8 1/4, but could be re-sized by a silversmith or a jeweler who works in sterling. The green stone is not a gemstone, but rather highly polished, faceted, GORGEOUS glass or crystal. The only flaw I can find here is some light, normal tarnish to the sterling silver due to age. Overall very good condition! Looks GREAT on!
$299.00
Features a FABULOUS, big, natural turquoise nugget in the front center, set within twisted, finely textured and oxidized, 14 K gold! Setting resembles a natural “branch” or “vine” type design – very unique – and appears to be hand made! The textury design goes all the way around the ring’s shank. The mark on the inside is barely visible, and has been worn down, but this piece DOES test positive as a minimum of 14 K gold. It’s good & hefty, weighing in at 11.3 grams! Ring size is about 7 ¼. The turquoise stone appears to be in good shape with no visible chips. This ring measures about ¾ of an inch wide max in the front where the stone is. The stone stands up about 5/8 of an inch from the finger’s surface when on. Overall very good condition! TRULY UNIQUE!
Sterling & Tiger Eye Ring
$179.00
Marked “STERLING SILVER”, and also signed, faintly, “S’PALIU SPAIN”; features a fabulous, geometric, modernistic design with a HUGE, sleek, highly-polished Tiger Eye stone and a unique-shaped, hefty, geometric ring shank! Stone measures about 1 inch by 1 inch; this piece is about a ring size 6 ¾ - 7. This ring is very hefty, heavy and very well-made. There is just some light tarnish & scratching to the sterling silver due to age. Another S’Paliu modernistic piece – the sterling & tiger eye bracelet which pretty much matches this ring --- may be seen on page 157 of Fred Rezazadeh’s book on Silver Jewelry. Overall this UNIQUE, sleek, geometric ring is in very good shape; looks amazing on!
Sterling & Tiger Eye Ring
Front View
Sterling Silver & Topaz Ring
SOLD
Marked on the inside "SILVER 925" (for Sterling Silver). Has an INTRICATE, elegantly scrolling openwork design with an incredibly LARGE, GORGEOUS smoky topaz stone in the center! The stone measures OVER 3/4 of an inch across in diameter, and is sparkly and multifaceted and in great shape! Ring size is about an 8, but could be re-sized by a jeweler. The openwork pattern surrounding this great stone is truly GORGEOUS and a real work of art!
$59.99
Marked “CZ 925” and with © and a maker’s mark which I cannot make out; features an absolutely STUNNING design, with six channel-set columns of SPARKLY, multicolored CZ baguettes in pale lime green, yellow, amber/orange, ruby red, amethyst purple & turquoise, with columns of clear, round, multifaceted CZ’s at either end! The ring is nice and WIDE, measuring OVER ½ an inch wide in the front, and about 3/16 of an inch wide in back. This piece is a ring size 5 ¼. The sterling has a rich gold vermeil over it. All stones are intact, clean & VERY sparkly. This ring has a nice, hefty weight to it. Overall very good, clean condition! Truly dazzling!
$159.00
Marked on the inside “18 K” (for 18 karat gold), along with an oval mark; features a gorgeous, round coral sphere in the front, set in a sleek, geometric setting! The coral sphere measures about 5/16 of an inch across in diameter (about 7 millimeters). This ring measures over 3/8 of an inch wide max in the front; it is about a ring size 7, but could be re-sized by a jeweler if desired. Weighs in at about 2 grams. There is just a bit of light dirt due to age; also, there is a bit of old jeweler’s glue remnant around the stone, which has slightly darkened due to age, but this really should not be distracting when the ring is on. This piece is probably from circa the 1930s-40s. Overall good condition – looks great on!
$129.00
Marked “STERLING” inside, along with the maker’s mark – a star, the letter W, and another star. Features a large, blue marbleized glass stone in rich royal blue & navy blue, with an INTRICATE sterling filigree look & stamped out openwork design at the sides – very 1920s! The stone is nice & large – measuring about 7/8 of an inch tall by over ½ an inch wide. With its outer frame, this ring measures about 1 inch wide in the front. Women in the 1920s had much more delicate hands, and consistent with that fact, this piece is a small ring size – about a ring size 3. (Great as a pinkie ring today!). There is just a bit of light, normal tarnish to the sterling due to age, and some fine, light scratches to the stone; this is really NOT distracting when the ring is on! Overall very good condition; truly stunning on!
$89.99
Signed by the maker “S&B” on the inside, and also marked with 3 indented squares with English Hallmarks which look like a Lion Passant (full-body of lion in profile), a Leopard’s face, and the letter “t” -- features a LARGE, highly-polished agate stone! The agate stone measures about ¾ of an inch tall by almost 5/8 of an inch wide at the widest point, and features various shades of russet/orange, beige, and white. This piece is a ring size 7 – 7 ¼; it is nice & hefty, weighing about 7.5 grams. There is just a tiny dent in the sterling near the top, which is NOT evident unless one really studies the piece up close. There is some normal tarnish due to age. I believe that the hallmarks are London Sterling Hallmarks. Overall very good condition!
& Hematite Ring
$85.00
Marked inside with what looks like “C” & “C” (with the second “C” facing the first “C” – i.e., facing backwards). Features a sparkly, faceted, large hematite stone in the center, with fine 1920s stamped patterns at either side! Stone measures about 7/8 of an inch tall by just under 3/8 of an inch wide. Ring size 3 ½, perfect for a pinkie ring, but could be re-sized by a jeweler if desired. The only flaw I can find is: if you look in the BACK of this ring, old glue remnants are visible BEHIND the stone – I showed this to my jeweler, and it is the glue which is holding the stone in place, and can be removed if one wants to have the stone re-set. At the front, upon VERY close examination, there are some TINY little barely-evident glue remnants at a few edges, which really are NOT noticeable to an observer when the ring is on. There is also just a bit of dirt to the gold within the crevices at the side of the stone. Overall good condition.
$85.00
Marked on the inside “TC-51 MEXICO 925” and also with the artist’s initials, which look like “ACJ”; features a FUN, WILD, MODERNISTIC SPINNING design! At the center is a stationary square sterling piece; spinning around this is a larger, outer, open square which spins wildly & freely! Ring size 8 ½; shank measures about 5/16 of an inch wide max in the front, and 3/16 of an inch wide in the back. The large outer square measures about 5/8 of an inch by 5/8 of an inch. There is a bit of light scratching due to age; in the front, a wear mark is visible (in the right lighting) where the outer square has spun & hit the inner square. Also, in the back, there is a small line visible where the ring was either re-sized OR it may be original to the piece, where the ends were joined together. (The line is very neat). This piece is a solid, hefty weight of 9.1 grams. Overall good condition - MUCH better looking in person! A real conversation piece!
Gold & Blue Crystal Ring
$145.00
Marked “RINGMASTER” on the inside; with a SPARKLY, faceted light blue crystal stone at the center and a wonderful Art Deco design at either side! Like many older rings, this piece is not marked for gold content, but it is indeed 14 K gold as verified by both my own test and my jeweler. Ring size 4 ¼ -- fingers were TINY back then! Measures about 3/8 of an inch wide in the front; the stone itself measures about ¼ of an inch by 3/16 of an inch. The only flaw I can find is that there is just a bit of evidence of darkness due to solder, probably from when this ring was re-sized at some point, but it still looks really great! Overall very good condition.
SOLD $299.00
Truly Unique! Features an intricate, 3-dimensional artist palette complete with “brushes” and “paint” made up of multicolored, sparkly CZ stones! Is not marked as gold, but has been gold tested, AND looked at by my jeweler / gemologist, and all parts are a minimum of 14 K gold. The “paint” CZs are in fabulous colors, including dark purple, royal blue, 2 in deep teal green, one lime green, ruby red & citrine colored! All stones are intact. Palette is nice & large, measuring about 7/8 of an inch tall by 5/8 of an inch wide max. Weighs 6.2 grams and is a ring size 5. Upon close examination, in back, it appears that the palette was once either a pendant or pin, which someone had soldered onto a gold ring shank. On the back of the palette, one can see the letters “OL” (the start of a word - probably the artist's mark) and “LY” (the end of a word). (the rest of the words are obscured by the soldering of the ring shank to the palette, which is very well done and very secure). I am guessing that the “LY” were from the word “ITALY.” There is some very slight dulling or dirt to a few of the CZs due to age, but this is NOT distracting when the ring is on! Overall, very good condition! Rare!
$59.00
Ring size is about 6 1/2. Marked “STERLING & 10 K G.F.” on the inside, and also with the maker’s mark, two “C&C” (with the “C”s in sideways triangles - the mark of Clark & Coombs, which began business in 1872); features a fabulous design with a sleek, highly-polished oval agate stone at the front center! The agate stone is nice & large, measuring about 7/8 of an inch tall by 5/16 of an inch wide. The stone’s sterling setting features a finely stamped design on it; and at either side of the stone are elegant, swirly, gold-filled “leafs” with a nice, textury pattern to them! The ring shank is in bright, shiny sterling silver. The only flaw I can find is that there is a TINY bit of wear to the gold filled “leaf” designs, which is BARELY evident unless one really scrutinizes the piece up close. Overall very good condition!
Silver & Amber Glass Ring
$79.00
Marked “835” and with a fish logo / maker’s mark (with the fish facing downward); also marked with a tiny mark on the OUTSIDE of the shank with what looks like an oval with three crowns, and the letter “S” in a hexagon. Features a fabulous, SLEEK design with a tapered band and a large, frosted-looking amber glass sphere stone in the front with a curvy, abstract, very retro – chic setting! Ring shank is tapered, with the back wider (about ¼ of an inch wide) and the front narrower. The spherical amber glass ball measures just under ½ an inch across in diameter. About a ring size 6 ¼. Has a couple of small scratches & tiny scuffs to the amber glass, and some light scratching & tarnish to the silver due to age. I believe that this piece is 83.5% pure silver (due to the 835 marking) as opposed to 92.5% for sterling, but is still real silver. Overall good condition -- a sleek, abstract, wonderful look!
& UNIQUE Multi Turquoise Ring
$85.00
Marked “STERLING” and with the makers mark, which looks like “C & C”, with the “C”s inside triangles (the mark for Clark & Coombs, which was founded in 1872 in Providence, RI). Features a truly UNIQUE, natural, MULTICOLORED turquoise stone set in a VERY 1920s sterling setting! The stone is truly GORGEOUS, with different shades of turquoise and browns; at either side of the stone are flower-like designs & elegant stamped patterns! About a ring size 4 ¾, but could probably be re-sized by a skilled jeweler or silversmith. Stone measures just over 5/8 of an inch tall by about ½ an inch wide, and is securely set. Light tarnish & scratching to the sterling silver due to age; and, the ring shank is slightly bent, but this could be easily remedied if one gets the ring re-sized. Overall very good condition and VERY unique!
Sterling & Magenta Stone Ring
$79.00
Features a large, sparkly, dark pink/ magenta faceted stone set in an abstract, circa 1950s retro / modernistic sterling design! Per my jeweler, who is also a GIA certified Gemologist, the stone is synthetic, and the metal used is confirmed as Sterling Silver (even though it is not marked). This piece is adjustable in size (the front part is “open”), and as photographed it is about a ring size 5. This ring measures 5/8 of an inch wide max at the “U” portion (just to the right of the stone in the photo); the stone itself measures just over 3/8 of an inch across in diameter. The sterling has some light tarnish & very light scratching due to age. The ring shank is slightly bent into an oval shape rather than perfectly round. This piece appears to be hand made. Looks super on!
$189.00
Marked "14 K" inside; features an ENORMOUS, sleek Malachite stone which measures about 1 inch tall, over 5/8 of an inch wide, and domes outward about 1/4 of an inch! Stone is set in a simple, yet elegant, hand-forged looking gold setting, with little openwork "loops" at either side. (Upon close examination, each side is ever so slightly different, hinting at the hand made nature of this piece!). Is about a ring size 6. There is just the tiniest bit of minor scratching to the gold & the stone, which is really barely evident at all to the naked eye! Overall, this FABULOUS, handmade 14 K gold & Malachite ring, with its GORGEOUS, hefty, LARGE stone and sleek design, is in very good, clean condition and looks GREAT on!
$250.00

Including the gold frame, this piece measures 1 inch tall by just under ¾ of an inch wide. This ring is just a bit over a ring size 7, and weighs about 6.2 grams. There is an elegant design on the ring shank at either side of the jasperware piece – see the side view photo. The Jasperware piece is in VERY good shape, with NO chips or cracks. Overall very good condition!

$59.00

Overall very good condition!
