Multi-Stone Marquise Cut Bypass Ring

This is a bypass style ring features a decorative head set with three marquise-cut gemstones. The stones are arranged in a floral or leaf-like cluster, prong-set within a curved, bypass-style mounting. The band appears to be constructed of a base metal, likely copper based on the reddish-brown oxidation visible where the surface plating has worn away. The gemstones vary in color: two exhibit a pale, yellowish-green hue resembling peridot or green quartz, while the third appears cloudier and more white, potentially a clear quartz or a synthetic substitute. The craftsmanship indicates a mass-produced, costume jewelry grade item, likely dating from the late 20th century. Condition-wise, the ring shows significant signs of wear and age. There is pronounced tarnish and green oxidation (verdigris) forming around the prongs and the lower edges of the gemstones, which suggests moisture exposure and metal degradation. The surface finish is heavily abraded, and the gemstones show surface scuffing and internal inclusions or cloudiness. No visible hallmarks are present in the current view, but the plating loss identifies this as non-precious metal. The overall aesthetic is mid-to-late 20th-century costume design, focusing on organic, flowing lines.
