Oval Pink Gemstone Halo Cocktail Ring

This jewelry piece consists of a prominent oval-cut pink gemstone, likely a laboratory-grown or natural pink sapphire or tourmaline, center-set in a decorative cocktail ring. The central gemstone is cut in a smooth cabochon or slightly faceted oval style, exhibiting a vibrant magenta-pink hue with visible internal inclusions or streaks that may suggest a natural origin or a specific glass-filling treatment. It is surrounded by a 'halo' of approximately 14 to 16 small round white accent stones, which appear to be cubic zirconia or small diamonds, each held in individual white metal prongs to enhance brilliance. The main setting and the band (shank) are constructed from a yellow-toned metal, likely 10k or 14k yellow gold or gold-plated sterling silver. The design is a classic 'Princess Diana' or cluster style typical of late 20th-century jewelry (circa 1980s-1990s). The metal shows moderate wear consistent with age, specifically some thinning of the band and slight dulling of the polish. No maker's marks are visible in the provided image, but the construction suggests a mass-marketed fine jewelry piece. The gemstones appear securely set, though the clarity of the central stone is translucent rather than transparent, indicating its specific grade.
