Vintage 18K gold diamonds and pearl dolphin ring
This exquisite early 20th-century 18K gold ring features a whimsical dolphin-like creature, its delicate design captures his playfulness in our eyes.
The creature is adorned with 12 rose-cut diamonds, adding a touch of brilliance. The diamonds are bezel set in silver, while the ring is mounted in 18K yellow solid gold. Small in ring size yet hefty in weight, it carries a substantial 8.9 grams, offering both a sense of luxury and durability.
There is a white trembling pearl resting in its mouth, evoking a sense of movement and life. The shanks of the ring are expertly twisted and engraved to mimic the scales on the body, enhancing the illusion of fluid motion as if the little creature were swimming on your finger.
With its intricate design and high-quality craftsmanship, this ring is sure to appreciate in value over time.
The ring is stamped with the French owl hallmark for 18K gold and it is resizable at buyer’s cost, please contact us before passing your order.
