Silver-Tone Pearl and Cubic Zirconia Ring

This item is a silver-tone ring featuring a central white spherical pearl, likely a cultured pearl, set within an elaborate mounting adorned with small, clear gemstones. The pearl appears to be approximately 8-10mm in diameter, exhibiting a good luster with a slight creamy overtone. It is securely bezel-set or held by prongs that are not clearly visible, surrounded by a halo of small, round, brilliant-cut stones, most likely cubic zirconia given the typical materials for such designs. The main setting has a swirling or bypass design, with two arms extending from the band to embrace the pearl, each arm studded with additional small clear stones. The metal appears to be a polished silver-tone, possibly sterling silver, rhodium-plated base metal, or white gold, though without hallmarks, an exact identification is not possible. The band is relatively thin, presenting a contemporary or modern style. The overall condition appears good, with no visible damage or missing stones. The metal shows a consistent sheen, suggesting minimal wear or recent polishing. The craftsmanship appears to be of moderate quality, typical of fashion jewelry or a lower-end fine jewelry piece that emphasizes design over material intrinsic value. The ring's design suggests it could be from the late 20th or early 21st century.
