Vintage Cultured Pearl Ring - Solitaire - Silver - Size 6.25


A dainty vintage cultured pearl solitaire ring. The pearl is approximately 7.5mm and is set in a four prong setting. On each side of the pearl is a decorative detail. It is silver. Marked "PN" on the inside of the shank. Fairly lightweight ring. Because of the design and construction of the ring, I believe that it dates to the 1930s to 1940s.

---Pearl: approximately 7.5mm

Condition:
---The overall condition is good. A few blemishes on the pearl.

Vintage Art Deco pin. So pretty! It has a carnelian color oval stone. Set in a 
beautiful ornate lacy filigree silver tone setting that was very typical of this era. 
It has a very secure safety clasp. There is a hallmark on the clasp, but I cannot 
make it out. I have not tested the metal or stone. Possibly rhodium plated. 
This pin dates to the early 1920s.

Antique 1920s Art Deco Ring - Double Imitation Pearls - Sterling Silver Patterned Shank



This is a vintage Art Deco imitation double pearl ring. It is a very tiny size 2.50. 
This is NOT adjustable! I do not recommend re-sizing of this ring as it may 
damage the imitation pearls. Each imitation pearl is set in a flower like cup. 
One pearl is a cream color and the other is a teal bluish green gray color. 
Both pearls are a nice large size. The darker pearl is larger than the cream colored one. 
The ring has a floral design engraved around the band. Very much like 
the "orange blossom" design that was so popular in the 20s and 30s. The ring is 
marked sterling. It dates to the 1920s. 

I do not recommend re-sizing of this ring as it may damage the imitation pearls.

Measurements:
---Size: 2.50 (Very small size.) This is NOT adjustable!
---Cream Pearl: approximately 9.5mm
---Tealish Gray Pearl: approximately 10.5mm

Condition:
---Some wear.
---Very light surface scratches and some spots on pearls.
