Vintage Gold-Tone Filigree Scroll Band Ring

Description:
Paired scrolls loop around the band like lace drawn in gold, each curl edged in fine beading and finished with tiny rosettes. Wide, airy bands like this were a favorite of 1970s costume jewelry, inspired by French filigree work. The open pattern shows a warm glimmer of skin between the scrolls. It’s substantial without weight and wears well alone or stacked.

Gold-tone metal
