MAJESTIC LARGE ANTIQUE 20 k gold ring with small pearls and a red glass stone. Please read the product parameters. And choose the jewelry that suits you to avoid unnecessary trouble. Unbelievably beautiful and really LARGE, and I mean L A R G E ring with an adjustable band. The ring is antique approx. Early 20th century and hails from Rajasthan, India. It is an amazing piece of Indian Culture and Art. Top stone is red glass, surrounded by TINY pearls. Ring was handmade AND THIS IS SUPER IMPORTANT – check the close up, NOTHING IS PERFECT – not the setting of the pearls nor the circumference of the ring. SO PLEASE NO ARGUMENTS – NO DISCUSSIONS – unless there is something fun and interesting to discuss. Life truly is too short. It definitely takes a connoisseur of tribal jewelry, a true collector to appreciate the beauty of these pieces that represent Indian Culture and Art. 20K GOLD CONSISTS OF 20 PARTS OF PURE GOLD AND 4 PARTS OF OTHER METALS. IN OTHER WORDS, IT IS COMPOSED OF 83.3% GOLD AND 16.7% ALLOY. This type of gold can be found in some vintage. Jewelry shops around Europe and the US. 20k gold is preferable for plain gold jewelry as it is quite soft for heavily studded jewelry pieces.

Highly sought after by serious collectors, lovers of Indian jewelry and connoisseurs. LARGE AND HEAVY please check measurements and the weight. HIGH on the finger – see pictures and check measurements. This is not meant for a dainty hand or for dainty fingers nor is it meant to be worn every day but it is absolutely lovely. This ring is from my own personal collection. HEAVY AND VERY LARGE STATEMENT RING. Inside filled with wax. Handmade SO NOT PERFECT BY ANY STRETCH OF THE IMAGINATION – check all the pictures. Wear commensurate with age dings, scratches, areas that show soldering, etc. A word of caution when wearing your jewelry (this applies to all jewelry). All fine jewelry should be worn and cherished but you should properly take care of it so you can enjoy the items for many years. Although the ring is filled with wax, avoid banging it against hard surfaces. Take it off when submerging your hands in water, when you are going for a swim or taking a shower – that’s just common sense. While we are at it – also avoid lotions and perfume. Jewelry should not be dropped (gold is a precious metal – it is not iron). Jewelry should not be worn to bed. You can easily damage your rings or necklaces while sleeping. Store your jewelry in individual bags – don’t just throw it in a pile of other jewelry or in your bag. 20 k is VERY yellow. Pls make sure you like this – some people don’t. 20 k gold is softer than other alloys and as such scratches easier but I love the lived-in look.

NOT a ring for everyday wear. NOT a ring for dainty hands and fingers. NOT a ring for the average customer (no offense intended) but definitely a wonderful piece for the collector or the connoisseur of antique tribal jewelry. Compare the item to an item you own.
