Very Rare Ancient Medieval Gold Ring
Beautiful Natural Orange Center Stone
Magnificent Ancient Hand Crafted Artwork Designs
Circa: 1000 - 1650AD
This is a Very Rare Ancient Medieval era Gold Ring with a Magnificent Natural Orange Center stone. Stone is fully intact with no cracks or chips, and has beautiful natural patterns within the stone. Stone setting is in excellent condition with normal expected wear from age. On both sides of the band, adjacent to the bezel are two additional smaller stone settings which highly complement this ring's design. One band stone setting has it's original stone still intact. The opposite stone setting is missing it's stone which has been lost throughout the centuries. The missing Stone can easily be replaced with a similar modern stone such as a Blue Sapphire. This ring is of a VERY beautiful, solid design, with magnificent hand crafted artwork, on the bezel, and completely surrounding the entire band by the ringsmith who designed and created this magnificent masterpiece of ancient adornment artwork. Ring is very heavy, solid, and in magnificent condition with only minor expected wear from age. Medieval rings of such preserved condition, weight, size and uniqueness, are Very Rare and extremely difficult to find.
Ring is at least 350+ years old.
Much of the ring has been professionally cleaned to restore, and display it's original brilliance, beauty and detail. If the new owner so desires to remove the remaining visible centuries of patina, dirt and tarnish, they may use moderate amounts of silver cream and a soft damp cloth, and a damp soft bristle toothbrush to completely return the ring back to it's full gold luster and beauty!
The Ring's band has been chemically tested, and results are 100% gold positive when tested at 10k. Ring's Gold karat is less than 10k (around 8k), and is gold throughout as described, and not gold plated. In Medieval times they did not have the karat system when creating more solid and durable gold items which were generally a mixture of Gold, Silver and Bronze. This Ring appears to have been constructed from Gold and Silver only, and without Bronze. Without the bronze, the Ring will not have the strong dominant gold tone such as with high karat gold. This Ring has a very vivid gold tone, even without the use of bronze to enhance the gold appearance. The level of gold tone is more and less dominant depending on lighting conditions. In florescent lighting, the gold tone is very dominant, in incandescent lighting, the gold tone may be less dominant. The displayed pictures were taken under florescent lighting and the gold tone in pictures appear more dominant than actual gold tone. The winner can also verify gold content by placing a piece of silver next to the Ring. The gold tone level dominates quite vividly, or of course you may have the Ring professionally chemically tested with 10k acid for "low karat value less than 10k". The level of gold tone gives this Ring a very beautiful and uniquely striking, brilliant luster and appearance.
This Ring is 100% Guaranteed to be solid gold throughout as described, and not gold plated.
Ring is 100% Guaranteed Authentic as described, or a FULL refund will be cheerfully issued.
