Cluster Simulated Pearl Stretch Band Costume Ring

This item is a statement cocktail ring featuring a prominent hemispherical cluster of approximately 20 to 25 white simulated pearls. The pearls are uniform in size and spherical in shape, possessing a high-luster, cream-ivory finish characteristic of glass or plastic beads with an essence d'orient coating rather than organic growth. The beads are wired individually onto a central base using gold-toned metal pins, which are visible at the apex of each pearl, creating a textured 'grape cluster' or 'pompom' aesthetic. The ring's band is a distinctive flexible stretch design, constructed from a metallic gold-tone woven mesh or braided elastic material. This design indicates a one-size-fits-all approach common in mid-to-late 20th-century costume jewelry, likely dating from the 1960s to the 1980s. The construction is indicative of mass-produced fashion jewelry where versatility of fit was prioritized over precious metal hallmarks. The visible condition appears fair to good; the pearl finish shows minor surface reflective consistency, though simulated pearls of this type are prone to 'peeling' or yellowing over time if exposed to oils or perfumes. No specific maker’s marks are visible on the exterior, suggesting it may have been branded via a hang-tag or card at the original point of sale.
