Sterling Silver and Amethyst Flower Ring

This item is a ring, appearing to be crafted from sterling silver, given its lustrous, cool-toned metallic sheen. The ring features a central floral motif composed of four faceted, deep purple gemstones, likely amethysts, arranged in a quadrant pattern to form a flower shape. Each gemstone is individually set with prongs, holding them securely in place. The metal surround for the central stone arrangement is bright and polished, contrasting slightly with the darker recesses of the filigree. The band of the ring exhibits intricate openwork filigree on both shoulders, characterized by swirling, organic-inspired patterns that lend an antique or vintage aesthetic. Visible hallmarks or maker's marks are not discernible from the provided image. The ring appears to be in good overall condition, with no overt signs of heavy wear, significant scratches, or damage to the metalwork or stones. The silver maintains a good polish, suggesting regular care, though minor surface wear consistent with typical use may be present upon closer inspection. There is no obvious patina that would suggest extreme age, indicating it could be a contemporary piece designed with a vintage-inspired flair, or a well-maintained older piece. The craftsmanship, particularly the detailed filigree and secure stone settings, suggests a moderate to high level of quality indicative of fine jewelry rather than costume jewelry. The style points to a potential Art Nouveau influence or a modern interpretation of such. It is designed to be worn on a finger, as demonstrated by its placement on a thumb in the image.
