Cultured Pearl and Diamond Bypass Ring in 14K Yellow Gold

This elegant bypass-style ring features a central cultured pearl, approximately 6-7mm in diameter, exhibiting a creamy white body color with a soft silvery orient and smooth surface luster. The pearl is securely mounted in a 14-karat yellow gold setting. Flowing around the central pearl is a bypass-style shank that bifurcates into two distinct decorative channels. The lower channel is channel-set with five small round-cut accent diamonds, likely single or full cuts, while the upper curve features a tiered flourish of five additional round diamonds. The yellow gold has a high-polish finish, creating a warm contrast with the pearl’s cool sheen. Based on the design aesthetics, the ring likely dates from the late 20th century, specifically the 1980s or 1990s, a period popular for this specific bypass-swirl configuration. The item is presented in a black textured jewelry box with a gold decorative border. The condition appears excellent with no visible scuffing to the pearl’s nacre or missing stones, though internal hallmarks for gold purity (such as 14K or 585) would be expected on the inner band upon physical inspection. The craftsmanship is consistent with high-quality commercial fine jewelry of its era.
