With its richly banded green and gentle glow, this ring seems to belong to a world of fairy tales, where forests whisper and stones carry ancient stories. The malachite, concentric and serene, is cradled in a setting adorned with the kind of golden beadwork which is indicative of Etruscan revival style. It’s a ring that brings the past forward, balancing nostalgia and drama in a most wearable way.

Handmade around 1860, this striking solitaire features a round malachite cabochon measuring 8 mm in diameter and 2.2 mm deep. The setting is crafted in solid 15 karat gold and features a decorative gallery with golden orbs and scrollwork details at the shoulders. The ring is a US size 7, with an overall face measurement of 12.2 mm north to south and 19 mm across the top. The band is 2 mm wide, and the ring weighs 2.18 grams. It is unmarked but has been carefully tested as 15 karat gold.

Perfect for a lover of unusual vintage stones or bold-yet-refined design, this ring is an echo of past elegance wrapped in vivid green.
