Crafted in 10kt yellow gold, this ring from the 1930's features a bezel set oval cabochon amethyst, measuring 9.5 x 7.9 x 4.8mm and weighing 2 ct, flanked by carved bow motifs along each shoulder. Ring size 6.75, total weight 2.4 grams.

Amethyst has been prized since antiquity for its rich violet hue, once believed by the ancient Greeks to ward off intoxication and later favored by royalty across Europe as a symbol of nobility and spiritual clarity. The carved bow motifs along the shoulders reflect the romantic, decorative sensibilities favored in early 20th-century jewelry design, adding a soft, sentimental touch to the bold center stone. The smooth cabochon cut showcases the amethyst's saturated color and domed silhouette without any faceting.

Please note, this piece is sold as-is: the stone shows abrasion consistent with genuine age and wear. We believe in full transparency about condition, and this presents a wonderful opportunity for a collector who appreciates authentic vintage character.

Elevate your jewelry collection with this vintage amethyst ring, a richly colored and decoratively detailed addition for collectors of early 20th-century jewelry. Its substantial cabochon stone and carved bow shoulders make it a striking piece of genuine period character.
