Vintage Gold-Tone Love Knot Ring with Garnet Rhinestone

A single strand of polished gold-tone wire loops into a lover’s knot, with a small garnet-red stone tucked inside the curve like a kept secret. Knot rings have stood for devotion since the Victorian era, and this sleek revival is typical of 1970s costume jewelry. The open design is light on the hand. It looks lovely alone and stacks easily with other gold.
