Men's Vintage Three-Stone Ring with Square-Cut Fuchsia Gemstone and Diamond Accents

This item is a men's ring, likely a vintage or antique piece, given its design and the apparent wear. The ring features a central, square-cut gemstone of a vibrant fuchsia or magenta color, which strongly suggests it is a ruby or a lab-created ruby simulant due to its intense saturation. Flanking the central stone on either side are two smaller, round-cut colorless stones, which appear to be diamonds or diamond simulants. These side stones are set within octagonal bezels, adding a geometric Art Deco or mid-century modern aesthetic to the design. The metal appears to be yellow gold, possibly 10K or 14K, given its color and the slight dullness that can occur with age and wear on lower karat gold alloys. Some white metal, likely white gold or platinum, is used to highlight the settings of the colorless side stones, creating a two-tone effect. The ring's band is broad and relatively thick, suggesting robust construction typical of men's rings. The shoulders of the band exhibit a ribbed or fluted texture, providing a decorative element. While no specific maker's marks or hallmarks are visible in the image, the overall construction suggests a mass-produced, yet thoughtfully designed, piece. The ring shows signs of wear consistent with regular use, including minor abrasions or scratches on the metal surface and possibly on the facets of the stones, indicated by the diffused light reflection. The patina on the gold suggests age rather than newness. The stones appear securely set, with no obvious chips or loose settings visible from this perspective. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality for its likely era, characterized by precise stone cutting and secure settings, although without magnification, fine details regarding polish and symmetry are difficult to ascertain. Its style period is likely mid-20th century, possibly 1940s-1970s, due to the bold lines and use of accent stones with a prominent central gem.
