Cluster Cocktail Ring with Blue and Clear Stones

The item is a statement ring featuring a prominent cluster of stones set in what appears to be a yellow metal, possibly gold or gold-plated. The central design consists of two elongated, oval-shaped cabochon stones of a vibrant, rich blue color, likely lapis lazuli or a similar opaque blue gemstone. These blue stones are flanked and surrounded by numerous smaller, clear, faceted stones, which could be diamonds or diamond simulants, arranged in a starburst or floral pattern. The setting for these smaller stones appears to be a bezel or prong setting, securing each individual stone. The metalwork shows a polished, reflective surface in the visible areas of the ring's head. The band or shank of the ring, particularly the portion visible extending away from the stone cluster, appears to be a darker, possibly tarnished or oxidized metal, contrasting with the bright yellow of the bezel setting. This could indicate a mixed metal design or an area of significant wear/patina. There are no clear visible manufacturing marks or signatures in the provided image. The overall style suggests a more modern or mid-20th-century design, characterized by the bold cluster and contrasting materials. The condition shows some potential discoloration on the band, but the stones themselves appear intact and without major chips or cracks. The craftsmanship seems detailed, particularly in the well-defined setting of the numerous small clear stones.
