Condition notes: This ring has been well loved and therefor shows the years of wear. A “leaf” accent is missing from one shoulder, it’s possible that the entire ribbed shank was once enameled, the stones show lots of wear and there are two thin split in the gold surrounding the rivet located on the underside of the ring. The ring is still structurally sound and can be worn without concern.
