Vintage Sterling Turquoise Lapis Onyx Inlaid Dome Ring, Heavy Turquoise Inlay Dome Ring, Inlaid Turquoise Shank Silver Ring, Vintage Jewelry

Vintage Sterling Turquoise Lapis Onyx Inlaid Dome Ring. What a stunner! This ring is SOLID! The half-round dome of this sterling silver ring has inlaid turquoise, lapis, lazuli, and black onyx "slices". And the shank of the ring is also inlaid with turquoise all the way around. Stamped Sterling inside the shank and having the initials IAF scratched into the underside of the dome. I have not been able to identify the talented artist who made this ring.

At a weight of 22.3 grams, you will definitively feel this beauty on your hand, yet it is surprisingly comfortable to wear. The dome measures 7/8 inch across and has a height of 13.1 mm above the finger. The turquoise inlaid shank is 6.5 mm wide.
