Multi-Diamond Cluster Bypass Ring

This is a statement cluster ring featuring a multi-tiered bypass or 'S' curve design, crafted in a yellow gold mounting. The central diagonal row contains five marquise-cut diamonds, graduated slightly in size, set in individual prong settings. Flanking this center row on both sides are two rows of channel-set tapered baguette diamonds, creating a tiered architectural effect. The metal appears to be 10k or 14k yellow gold, though internal hallmarking is not visible in the photo. The style is characteristic of late 20th-century jewelry, specifically the late 1980s to early 1990s aesthetic. The stones exhibit a bright white to slightly off-white appearance; a few stones show some potential cloudiness or inclusions, typical of commercial-grade melee diamonds. In terms of condition, the mounting shows minor surface scratches and evidence of wear on the prongs consistent with regular use. The overall craftsmanship is consistent with high-volume fine jewelry manufacturers of the late 20th century, utilizing a combination of casting and hand-setting techniques to achieve a broad, light-reflective surface area. There is a slight patina on the gold surfaces, and one of the marquise stones appears to have a slight tilt, suggesting a possible minor prong adjustment may be needed.
