10k White Gold Multi-Gemstone Mother's Ring

This is a contemporary-style band ring crafted in 10-karat white gold, evidenced by the light silvery-yellow hue common in lower-karat white gold alloys after rhodium plating has worn thin. The ring features a multi-stone channel or heavy prong-set arrangement across the top half of the shank. The stones appear to be a variety of round or square-cut gemstones in different colors, including emerald green, ruby red, and a clear or white stone, which is a design characteristic of a 'Mother's Ring' representing various birthstones. The inner band shows a partially legible hallmark that includes a '10k' stamp and what appears to be a manufacturer's mark. The band is approximately 3mm to 4mm in width with a high-polished finish on the inner and outer surfaces. Regarding condition, there is visible surface wear including fine scratches (scuffing) and a dulling of the original finish, particularly along the edges of the shank and the underside. Some accumulations of dirt or biological material are present around the stone settings, suggesting regular wear. The prongs appear thick and secure, though the overall craftsmanship suggests a mass-produced fine jewelry piece rather than a custom artisan work. Estimated age is from the late 20th century to early 21st century.
