An fabulous 1930s jazz baby Art Deco sterling silver and red coral ring.
The rectangular face showcases a glossy coral cabochon cut into and unusual flat sided loaf shape. The coral is undyed and it is a lovely warm orange/red shade. It is set into a pie crust edge bezel that is framed by a bright cut engraved border accented at each corner with a pair of tiny marcasite stones. Engraved arrow motifs decorate the split shank at the sides, lovely attention to detail!
The ring is stamped with a hallmark on the outside of the band, a characteristic typically seen in European rings, it is likely Mediterranean in origin. The ring is in good condition with general surface wear and scratches in keeping with an age of 90 or so years, please refer to the photos.
