Diabella's Vintage Jewelry

#R-1: Vintage Lapis Ring - Size 8 or 8-1/2 Sterling Silver, Marcasite & Lapis ring. Vibrant blue color. Great with jeans. Under a magnifying glass you can see the faint gold flecks of the lapis stone. You can see some of the flecks in the scan. Stone is 1-1/4" long. Pretty curvy opening between the stone and the marcasite portion of the ring. Probably from the 60's. Price: $25

#R-2: Art Deco Sterling, Marcasite & Amethyst Ring - Size 8 or 8-1/2 Very Deco, very striking. Top of ring sits 1" wide across finger and setting is raised. The deep violet stone is rectangular and bevelled with an opening at the back to let the light in. Price: $35

#R-3: Sterling, Marcasite & Amethyst Cocktail Ring - Size 8 or 8-1/2 Three extremely vibrant beautifully faceted good size stones that have extraordinary sparkle. Setting is over 1/2" round. The marcasites are scattered inbetween the leaves. Price: $30

#R-4: Sterling & Amethyst Band - Size 8 or 8-1/2 Channel set / bezel set. Stones are a pretty pastel shade of very light purple/violet. All stones match in color and size. Band is 3/16" wide and is weighty for its size. Setting is well done and very substantial. This ring is not very vintage but it is pretty and because of its simplicity it can easily be worn with vintage pieces. Because the stones go all the way around the band, this piece can not be resized. Price: $20

#R-5: Yellow Gold Band with Stones. 10K? We believe this band is 10K yellow gold with cubic zirconia, but are not sure. It is approximately from the 80's. There are 6 faceted, prong-set stones with good sparkle. Sides are open to allow the light to come through. Setting is 2/16". Band is marked inside but we are unable to read the mark. Because we are not sure whether it's gold or not, it is being sold as a vintage "costume jewelry" piece. Price: $25

#R-6: Sterling & Turquoise Ring - Size 7 or 7-1/2 Great old 60's American Indian etched Sterling ring. Hand-made, etched with leaf design, bezel set domed Turquoise stone. Heavy for it's size with lots of sterling weight. Unlike the newer turquoise, the stone is a beautiful "turquoise" color and not like the "bluer" versions from most of today's mines. Price: $25

#R-7: 60's Silvertone "Opal" Ring - Size: Adjustable Fun piece of costume jewelry from the 60's. Beautiful iridescent colors that dance with the light. Scanner did a bad job of showing this. Oval shaped stone is a full 1/2" long and is an off-white opal color with flecks of color throughout. Band is silvertone metal and adjustable. Price: $10

#R-8: Sterling & Marcasite Gemstone Heart Ring - Size: 6-1/2 or 7 Really pretty little ring. Substantially heavy for its size. Probably from the 60's. Maybe earlier. Base of the setting is 1/2" long x 1/2" wide. The scan shows the stone to be green which it is not. This happened because the stone is very well faceted with lots of sparkle, which the scanner could not handle. It is a very soft shade of pink. Don't know what the stone is but my guess is that it is a pale pink Amethyst. Perfect for a young girl or teen-ager. Price: $25

#R-9: Deco Platinum, Diamond & Italian Coral Ring- Size: 8 or 8-1/4 Beautiful and very Art Deco high quality early 20's coral ring set in platinum. There are two tiny diamond chips on each side of the band which give the ring a nice sparkle. The coral is from Italy and is a beautiful and mellow shade of peachy-orange. The stone is cut very nicely into a smooth rounded cushion shape and is over 1/2" round. Looks especially nice with American Indian coral and turquoise jewelry. This is truly a beautiful and classy piece of the past. Price: $300

#R-10: Sterling, Marcasite & Amethyst Crossover Ring- Size: 8 or 8-1/4 Pretty old sterling silver cross-over ring with 6 marquise cut heavily faceted Amethyst stones. Good depth to the color and brilliant sparkle. Comfortable to wear. Price: $30
