14k Yellow Gold Purple STAR RUBY Flower Ring. Art Nouveau *VIDEO*

For sale is a 14k yellow gold ring with a natural purple star ruby. Many people do not know that star rubies are also called red star sapphires. This ring is one of a kind in many ways! The ruby is an unusual, subtle shade between purple and lavender. It is very large and round, with a slight dome. The ruby displays a magnificent six rayed star in sunlight or bright artificial light and a glowering asterism in dim light. 

The ring is a stunning example of Art Nouveau craftsmanship. Each shoulder of the ring is carved with an exceptionally beautiful flower. The gold around the top and bottom of the stone is carved with intricately detailed leaves. The ruby is carefully bezel set in a hand-crafted setting. The ruby has natural inclusions and tan marks when viewed through a loupe. The stone shows no cracks or chips but does show normal wear - scuffs and dings on the top surface of the stone (see photos and video). This beautifully crafted ring makes a big statement on the hand. You won't find another ring like this again!

Ring size:  6.25
