European Art Nouveau sapphire carved gold ring

This is a late 19th to early 20th-century Art Nouveau sapphire carved gold ring, crafted entirely in 18k gold. Its exact origin is unknown, but based on its style and design, it is indicative of European craftsmanship.

The ring features a simple and substantial design. Its centerpiece is a sapphire cabochon, which appears prominently when viewed from the profile, creating a three-dimensional structure with a relatively thick band. 

On either side of the shank, there are characteristic Art Nouveau streamlined floral engravings, and the openwork design adds an element of intricacy to this well-crafted piece.

The ring is in good antique condition, displaying normal signs of wear and oxidation. Evaluating an item's condition can be highly subjective, so please click on and enlarge our photos to examine more detailed condition information as a basis for your judgment.
