Vintage 18K White Gold White Sapphire Solitaire Filigree Ring. The design of this ring mounting is outstanding. Each shoulder features a ribbon bow with long, trailing tails, and these are connected by swags of orange blossoms, a flower traditionally associated with weddings. These elements are set atop a filigree base and the shank of the ring is further enhanced with more orange blossoms and X designs (kisses).
This beautiful ring features a round faceted white sapphire stone bead set in an octagonal head atop the raised filigree mounting. The perfect antique alternative engagement ring, this was made about 1930.
The ring is in very good condition, with no damage noted to the filigree design or main decorative elements. The plate in which the stone is mounted does show evidence of wear and some of the milgrain beaded detail is missing. The ring would be lovely reset with an heirloom diamond. The current stone measures approximately 3.8 mm X 2.15 mm, which is equivalent in size to a .20 CT diamond, but the mounting could possibly accommodate a slightly larger stone.
