Description:
A long marquise stone in deep violet and berry tones lies across rows of twisted gold rope, like a lantern set over woven cord. Heavy gold electroplate rings like this were a hallmark of 1960s–1970s jewelry, finished with a rich, lasting gold surface. The open rope gallery lets light through beneath the stone. The broad, ribbed shoulders make it a confident statement piece that sits comfortably on the hand.
