Antique 18K and Oxblood Red Coral and Diamond Ring, circa 1960

About the Item

Antique 18K ring centering fine oxblood coral from the Mediterranean. This long oval stone is surrounded with fine white brilliant cut diamonds all hand set in 18K. The ring bears no marks - which is not unusual for this time period. It has been acid tested to confirm its gold content as being 750% pure, 18K. The natural coral in a very pleasing shape, weighs approximately 6 cts and is surrounded by 1.85 cts of fine white brilliant cut diamonds. These diamonds are all well cut, well matched and very fine in clarity - H/VS2, near colorless and very slightly included. The 18K ring is a size 7, it is well made and in fine condition. It can easily be sized. Please note our model is a medium to large size. All items sold are accompanied by a detail description with photographs suitable for your insurance company and your files, as well as all original gemological documentation, if specified in the listing. As always, we guarantee all of pieces to be exactly as represented.  Each piece of jewelry arrives in a finely gift-wrapped presentation box. Over the decades of our stewardship as a small but exemplary purveyor of the jeweler's art, we have strived to offer a fine and authentic selection, in excellent condition, of collectible jewels from all highly sought time periods at competitive prices and even lower prices, if possible. In the process we have had the extraordinary good fortune of meeting remarkable people - some collectors, others just extremely interesting individuals who have taken the time and effort to examine their lives and select things that tend to make them smile, or admire, or just wonder at the exciting endlessly creative and nuanced panoply of jeweled artifacts.

  • Modernist Brutalist Amethyst, Diamond and 18k Yellow Gold Ring, circa 1960
    Located in Aspen, CO
    Brutalist 18K ring with amethyst and diamonds probably by Arthur King an American designer in the 1960's and 1970's. His jewelry can be seen in major museums such as MOMA and the V & A in London. He was also collected by many of the major movie stars and celebrities of the time such as Elizabeth Taylor, Lena Horne and Barbara Hutton. The ring, though not signed, has many of King's inimitable stylist nuances. Such as the powerful and organic prongs, the decidedly nugget like patina coupled with the obvious cie perdue or lost wax creation of the setting and the unusual design that was not mass produced. This ring is well made, the 6 diamonds, estimated to weigh .46 cts., are all H, near colorless, and very slightly included (VS1), they are set in 18K white gold, the rest of the ring is 18K yellow gold. The center pear cut natural amethyst is a pure vivid purple color with slight red undertones. This stone is estimated to weigh 12 cts. This ring is a fine example of "Brutalist Jewelry", with its very obvious "natural approach" to setting the stones, the texture of the gold which has the nugget...
