$3,500.00
SKU I26030

Dating to the 1890s, this Victorian 14KT gold ring features a large, rectangular cushion-shaped gold-in-quartz cabochon, showing natural veins and irregular gold deposits against a milky white quartz background. The contrasting colors create an intricate, one-of-a-kind pattern within the stone.

The quartz is held in a decorative gold mounting with a finely detailed border and an openwork gallery. The shoulders feature pierced geometric elements, engraved foliate accents, and graceful curved supports that taper into a polished gold shank. The ring is approximately a size 9.25 and weighs 6.7 grams.

Gold-in-quartz jewelry became particularly popular during the 19th century, especially following the California Gold Rush of 1848. Specimens containing visible natural gold were fashioned into jewelry, celebrating both the beauty of the material and the discoveries of the gold-mining era. Each piece is unique, with the natural gold deposits forming patterns that cannot be duplicated.

The ring is approximately a size 9.25 and weighs 6.7 grams.

Ring sizing is complimentary for most of our pieces and takes approximately two weeks to complete. If the ring needs to be sized up by 2 or more sizes, an additional charge will apply, depending on the piece.
