Gold vermeil (.925 sterling silver with a thick layer of gold on top) ring with carved green quartz stone and four pearls. Made by hand from an atelier that reproduces ancient and antique designs. This style and level of quality is very hard to find these days. Intaglio style image is carved from the smooth face of the stone in the Italian method and also has a beveled edge. The image is a profile of what looks like a 15th or 16th century fashionable Italian woman. Intricate rope detail around the edges only adds to the charm. Completely smooth back seamlessly wraps pearls in their bezels. Size 8 1/4. This is an exquisite piece- a modern reproduction fit for the Renaissance itself. #cameo #stone #stunning #quality #cocktailring
