Vintage-Style Oval Jade and Gold-Tone Ring

This item is a vintage-style ring featuring an oval-shaped, cabochon-cut jade gemstone set in a gold-toned metal band. The jade exhibits a vibrant, translucent apple-green color, typical of high-quality jadeite. The stone is smoothly polished and appears to be in excellent condition with no visible chips, cracks, or significant abrasions. The ring's setting is a bezel or prong-set style, securely holding the jade with four visible prongs. The gold-toned metal work around the oval stone features an intricate, somewhat ornate design, possibly with rope-like or braided textures and possibly thistle-like or floral motifs on the shoulders, suggesting a more classic or vintage aesthetic. The band itself appears to be a solid but relatively thin shank. The metal shows some minor surface wear consistent with age and use, including potential slight scratches or patina, but no immediate signs of major damage or repair are discernible from the image. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, with well-formed metalwork and a securely set stone. Without visible hallmarks, the exact metal composition (e.g., karat gold, gold fill, or plated) or maker cannot be definitively identified. Its overall style suggests an estimated age from the mid-20th century to possibly early contemporary, drawing inspiration from antique designs.
