{"product_id":"retro-antique-paste-stone-ring-in-14k-yellow-gold","title":"Unusual Antique Paste Stone Ring in 14K Yellow Gold","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis unusual ring tells a story of reinvention — antique paste stones given new life in a 1940s mounting. The setting is 14 karat yellow gold with floral details on the shoulders. Three colorless paste stones sit across the top: two round old European cut glass stones in 10 karat gold baskets and one old mine cut glass stone in a gold-tone base metal basket. All three baskets have been soldered onto the mounting, creating a handmade piece that was clearly assembled with care and intention. The shank is polished and the ring measures 13.40mm wide at the top. This charming yet strange ring is a real conversation starter! The paste gems appear much older than the mountings, it is likely this was assembled at some point for sentimental reasons. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDETAILS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSize: 7\u003cbr\u003eFace measures 13.40mm width at top\u003cbr\u003e14 karat yellow gold, stamped 14k and tested with two 10K baskets, 4.18g\u003cbr\u003eThree colorless antique paste glass stones: two old European cuts, one old mine cut\u003cbr\u003eRetro \/ 1940s \/ Estate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCONDITION\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ring shows evidence of sizing along the shank.
