Overview:
Stylish vintage lapis lazuli & jade inlaid checkerboard ring (circa 1970s) crafted in 14 karat yellow gold.
Lapis lazuli & jade is inlaid into the mount, measuring 15mm diameter. Note: few slight chips to the stones (visible under a 10x loupe).
The inlaid pattern of lapis and jade in a checkerboard setting is striking and unique. Designed to sit on the finger in a triangular position the ring makes a great statement on the hand. The low rise ring (3mm - 0.11 inches) sits comfortably on the finger.
The ring is in good condition. We have not cleaned it in order to preserve the patina and collector value.
