Five oval faceted stones — amethyst, peridot, champagne topaz, blue topaz, and amethyst — line up in a graduated spectrum across an oxidized sterling band framed above and below by rows of marcasite. Thai sterling workshops were producing some of the finest accessible gemstone jewelry from the 1970s onward, and the CNA maker's mark, wide tapered band, and oxidized finish suggest this piece dates to the earlier end of that tradition. Stamped 925, CNA, and Thailand on the inner band.

A bold floral cluster of round brilliant cubic zirconia — center stone ringed by eight larger stones, all framed by a pavé halo — sits atop a triple split shank set with additional CZ down each band.

A warm oval tiger's eye cabochon sits in a scrolled gold-filled setting, its chatoyant silky bands of amber and brown shifting with the light in that characteristic way that made the stone a favorite of mid-century jewelry designers. The flowing scroll shoulders give the ring an Art Nouveau-adjacent softness — a sensibility that experienced a strong revival in American jewelry of the 1950s and 60s. At 12K gold filled, this is a step above costume: a bonded gold layer over base metal with meaningful longevity and warm color. A grounded, mineral piece.

A large emerald-cut aqua blue rhinestone dominates this silver-tone Avon ring, set high in a four-prong corner setting with open scrollwork shoulders that keep the design light despite the stone's scale.

Avon produced rings of this quality and proportion throughout the 1970s and into the 80s, drawing on fine jewelry proportions to give their costume pieces genuine presence.

Hand-bent from a WM. A. Rogers Oneida Ltd. silverplate spoon, this wrap ring carries the graceful floral pattern of mid-century American flatware — roses and small blossoms trailing along scrolled stems. Spoon rings emerged as a folk art form in the 1960s and 70s counterculture, repurposing heirloom-quality flatware into wearable objects with quiet domestic history. The bowl of the spoon forms the wide face of the ring, smooth and domed, while the handle wraps beneath with its embossed detail intact. A piece that sits at the intersection of craft and found object.

The Queensbury was part of a full 1974 Avon collection — ring, earrings, bracelet — and carries the Victorian sensibility of the whole set.

A pale blue oval cameo — white female portrait in profile against a powder blue ground — sits at the center of a wide, ornate gold-tone band worked with scrolls, leaves, and open pierced detailing that darkens beautifully in the recesses. The blue-ground cameo format draws from Wedgwood's jasperware aesthetic, a reference point that gave mid-century costume jewelry makers a respectable visual vocabulary for revival-style pieces.

A broad, architectural gold-tone setting cradles a single round faux pearl, its ridged and faceted shoulders radiating outward like rays from a sun — or the ribs of a shell. The substantial weight and geometric form place this firmly in the 1970s, when signet-style rings were worn with intention and jewelry leaned bold and structural. The pearl reads soft against the heavily textured metal, an unexpected pairing that gives the piece real character. Wears with the confidence of a statement ring and the ease of an everyday one.

A narrow rectangular bezel holds a field of crushed teal opal mosaic — its surface a patchwork of blue-green fragments that shift in the light like a tide pool seen from above.

A charming vintage two-stone ring in the toi et moi (you and me) bypass style — one lustrous white faux pearl and one warm honey-brown tiger's eye cabochon, each prong-set and nestled together on a richly textured nugget-finish gold-tone head. The organic, molten-gold texture of the setting gives this ring a bold, handcrafted quality that suits both its stones beautifully. Stamped 18KT GE (gold electroplate) inside the band. Size 4.75.

◆ "Toi et moi" (you and me) rings feature two stones side by side, a design with roots in 18th-century French jewelry — Napoleon famously gave Josephine a toi et moi engagement ring. The style was widely revived in mid-century American costume jewelry.

◆ 18KT GE stands for 18 karat gold electroplate — a thick layer of 18kt gold applied over base metal, a step above standard gold plating and popular in quality American fashion jewelry of the 1960s and 1970s.

◆ Tiger's eye is a chatoyant (light-reflecting) quartz stone known for its warm golden-brown bands and silky luster — paired here with the cool luminosity of a faux pearl for a striking natural contrast.

◆ The nugget or "molten gold" texture on the setting is a hallmark of 1960s–70s American fashion jewelry, widely used to give electroplated pieces the feel of handcrafted fine jewelry.

An elegant vintage cocktail ring centered on a large oval rose quartz cabochon with a soft milky translucency. The stone is prong-set in a gold-tone mount and flanked on each shoulder by three sparkling clear rhinestones in a diagonal staircase arrangement, giving the ring a polished, dressed-up feel. The tapered shank is clean and classic. Size 5.

◆ Rose quartz is one of the most beloved semi-precious stones — known as the "stone of unconditional love," it has been used in jewelry for centuries and remains highly sought-after in vintage settings.

◆ The rhinestone shoulder accent in a staircase or diagonal arrangement is a signature design detail of mid-century cocktail jewelry, common in quality 1950s–1970s costume and semi-fine pieces.

◆ The combination of a large pale cabochon with clear sparkling side stones creates a sophisticated contrast that mimics fine jewelry — this ring photographs beautifully and wears as a true statement piece.

A round faux fire opal cabochon glows at the center of this ring, its surface shifting between warm gold, blush, and pale iridescence depending on the light — the effect is genuinely luminous. Textured gold-tone feather-like leaves curl around it from both sides, and three small clear rhinestones scatter loosely along the lower edge like morning dew. The overall composition is loose and organic, more like something found in a garden than assembled on a bench. One of Avon's more poetically designed pieces from their 1970s nature-inspired era.

A round cream faux pearl sits nestled at the base of a spreading fan of silver-tone marquise leaves, each one set with a clear rhinestone — the whole composition opening outward like a peacock tail or a spray of light caught mid-movement.

The Leaf Lights arranges five marquise-cut green rhinestones along a textured gold-tone branch, each stone cradled in its own bezel like a leaf held mid-motion.

Released in 1974 as part of Avon's botanical series, the Leaf Lights appeared in multiple configurations, this branch variation among the most convincingly organic.

A smooth, domed gold electroplate band rises to a flush-set heart at the crown — its face a diamond-cut silver-tone metal inlay with a small rhinestone accent at center, the contrast between the warm gold and cool silver quietly elegant. Tona was an American manufacturer known for quality gold-filled and gold electroplate pieces, and this ring reflects their cleaner, more refined output. The heart signet form places it comfortably in the 1970s–80s, when the shape moved between romantic and graphic with ease. A compact, wearable piece.

A deep black oval cabochon rests within an ornate gold-tone filigree setting, its scrollwork and leaf details drawn from Victorian and Edwardian revival styles that circulated widely in costume jewelry of the 1960s and 70s.
