14K Yellow Gold Marquise Diamond Ring with Channel Set Shoulders

The item is a 14 karat yellow gold ring, as indicated by the user's additional context 'Wic 14k ring'. It features a prominent marquise-cut diamond as the central stone, set securely in a bezel or partial bezel setting that follows the elongated shape of the diamond. Flanking the central diamond on both sides are channels of smaller, round brilliant cut diamonds. There appear to be two rows of these smaller diamonds on each side, though the exact count is difficult to ascertain from the image, they are set flush within the gold band, creating a smooth surface. The gold itself exhibits a warm, rich tone characteristic of 14K yellow gold. There are no obvious visible condition issues such as major scratches, dents, or missing stones, however, a professional cleaning would likely enhance its brilliance as the stones appear to have some accumulated dirt or film, which is common for worn jewelry. The overall craftsmanship suggests a mass-produced piece, but with attention to detail in the setting of the stones. The style of the ring, with a marquise center and channel-set side stones, points towards a more contemporary design, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century. No distinct maker's marks or signatures are visible in the provided image. The ring possesses a classic elegance suitable for an engagement ring or a dress ring.
