It’s not often that you find a yellow sapphire in an Art Deco shield ring. It’s even less often that you’d find one in such a large proportion. The Art Deco period’s filigree work shines through in this piece, and the stone’s light yellow hue glows beautifully against the bright white gold setting.
Although hallmarked as 18K, this piece tests between 16–17K, which is typical of jewelry from this era when gold purity standards were less strictly regulated.
Solid 16K-17K White Gold (hallmarked 18K)
Art Deco
Old European Cut Yellow Sapphire (~1.2 ct, 6.5mm diameter)
2.2g
Ring Size 3.5
Great vintage condition with minor chips on the sapphire, consistent with age and wear
