Vintage Filigree Green Marquise Ring

An openwork shield of aged gold and silver-tone metal cradles a star-shaped flower, its petals set with marquise faux jade in a soft, mottled green. Round emerald-cut rhinestones and cabochons ring the bloom, giving the whole piece a dimensional, garden-grown quality. The adjustable band lets it move easily from one hand to the next, a small relic of a well-loved jewelry box.
