Vintage Jade Saddle Ring
A deliciously juicy jadeite cabochon, it's pooling sour-apple hues rippled with bands of pale iridescence that gleam like veins of sugar in a boiled sweet, lies east to west across the head of this delightful vintage saddle ring. It melts into its bezel setting, the honeyed yellow gold creating a wonderful contrast with the green stone.
Hallmarks indicate the ring is crafted from 20 carat gold and of Chinese origin. Throughout Chinese history jade has been highly symbolic and sought after, often associated with strength, good fortune and happiness. Hopefully the next owner of this ring finds that to be true.

Condition
We offer detailed and accurate condition reports on each listing. These pieces are antique, vintage, or pre-loved, often over 100 years old so they're going to have lived a life. A healthy patina and the odd scuff/scrape are quite normal... it's part of their charm! Everything we present has been checked over by our jeweller and should be good for wear for many years to come (unless otherwise stated) but please remember to treat them with appropriate care and consideration for their age.
