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.

Vintage 1920s Art Deco Filigree Ring





A beautiful and dainty vintage Art Deco filigree ring. The round cream color imitation pearl is approximately 11mm. The pearl does have some cracks and damage to the lacquer. I think more noticeable in my photos than with the naked eye. I could not find a makers mark, but 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 pearl. Also I do not recommend getting this ring wet, as it may cause further damage to the finish on the pearl. 

Measurements:
---Size: 4
---Imitation Pearl: approximately 11mm

Condition:
---The lacquer on the pearl has some cracks and spots. I think more noticeable in my photos than with the naked eye. Please see all photos.
---There is also a brown spot on the underside.
