Mid Century 14ct Gold Synthetic Colour Change Sapphire Ring Circa 1960

About the Item

A super stylish, large emerald cut purple, synthetic colour-change sapphire singles tone ring dating from circa 1960. Synthetic color-change sapphires are fascinating because their strong color-change effect caused by high levels of vanadium overwhelms what most natural sapphires can exhibit. With this beautiful piece we see both warm purple and cool violetish blue colours strongly expressed at the same time and under different light settings. Dating from the mid century the band and setting are typical of the period being large and a statement making this a very bold piece ideal for showing of the stones true allure. Contact us if you require additional images or video clips of this piece.   Reasonable offers will be considered. RING SIZE – UK O / US 7 / EU 54 Resizing is available upon request.  DIMENSIONS – 18mm diameter MATERIALS – 14ct gold/ synthetic sapphire WEIGHT – 5.7g HALLMARK – Stamped ‘14’ with makers mark and tested throughout using a touchstone CONDITION – Very good, wear commensurate with age. The sapphire is in very good to excellent condition with no chips or cracks. The band shows no signs resizing and is in not excessively worn.
