Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE STUNNING VINTAGE 14K WG DOUBLE HALO BLUE SAPPHIRE DIAMOND RING 7.7 CT TW SIZE 7 This is a large and gorgeous vintage 14 K white gold lady’s blue sapphire and diamond cocktail ring. Because of how valuable I felt this ring was, I recently requested an appraisal on this ring from a prominent local jeweler and the appraisal came back at $ 12,615.00, and is dated November 28, 2023 – see my photos of this appraisal. According to this appraisal, the large oval center sapphire (light Ceylon/periwinkle in color) is approximately 5-1/2 carats, the total carat weight for the 18 (eighteen) smaller round sapphires (Ceylon color) is approximately 1.8 carats, and the total carat weight for the 14 (fourteen) round diamonds is approximately .42 Carats; making the total carat weight of this ring approximately 7.72 carats. This is really a very stunning and impressive ring. Please note: My name and address have been blocked out on the photos of the appraisal for security purposes; I will include a copy of this appraisal with the ring. The ring in my photos is the actual ring you will receive. Please be sure to read the “AGE AND CONDITION” and “APPROXIMATE DIMENSIONS” paragraphs below. The ring is marked “14K” on the inside of the band, but this is faint and not easy to read-see my last photo. This piece has been in my personal collection since 1998, when I bought it at an antique shop and as is the case with all my fine jewelry, has been well cared for by me in my smoke and pet free home. I want to be clear that I am not an expert on jewelry. I have purchased many antique or vintage rings over the years for my personal use and am in the process of selling off some of the pieces that I choose to no longer wear. I tried to buy from what I believed to be reputable sources and have enjoyed these pieces immensely over the years. In this case I did have this ring appraised by a reputable jeweler - please read the copy of the appraisal in my photos. I do my best to describe all items as accurately and honestly as possible and to the best of my ability. Some of my photos may be somewhat lighter or darker than actual to better show detail or color. However, do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments, or with requests for additional pictures. I will get back to you as soon as I am able. I want your transaction with me to be exactly the way I want mine to be when I am the buyer. Please take a moment and visit our eBay store “TNK Antiques.” You can access our store through a link in any of our eBay listings. Our store has many unique and interesting items in several different categories from 35 years of our dealing and collecting antiques and collectables. Age and Condition As mentioned above I am not an expert in jewelry but I would guess that the ring probably dates to the mid to the latter part of the 20th century (I bought it as pre-owned in 1998). It is in excellent condition. Please look closely at the photos as they are an important part of my description of this item. I examined the ring with a jeweler’s loupe and other than some light signs of use or wear see no problems. There are only some very light signs of use or wear that would be expected on a vintage ring like this. There may also be a bit of tarnish to the metal on the inside of the ring. It is beautiful and ready to wear. The recent appraisal I had done on this ring mentions no issues. Please keep in mind these photos may be blown up at least 8-10 times normal, so anything you see will look 8-10 times larger in the photos than it really is. Please note: if you see a dark spot in the photos, it is from my camera and is not a mark on the piece. It will be either just to the right of center towards the bottom or slightly above center on the right side of the photo. Approximate Dimensions The ring is a finger size 7 fit snugly on a size mandrel. Overall, the setting is about .75” (1.9 cm) front to back and about .6875” (1.7 cm) side to side. Approximate Weight About .25 ounce (7.4 grams). SALES TAX Depending on which state you live in eBay may add State Sales Tax on your purchase.
