How amazing for such a teeny, tiny ring to exist in
the 21st century. It is a baby or child's ring that could easily be worn as a
pendant on a chain or added to a charm bracelet. The pictures provide the best
description - a trio of genuine cabouchon turquoise stones, with the largest at
the centre, set into solid 12ct Rose Gold. .
It has that silky smooth feel usually only associated with solid carat
gold and to be expected of quality antique jewellery. The hue is a warm Rose
Gold.

OVERALL
Better-than-Excellent Antique Condition! There is a teeny chip to the central
stone only obvious under magnification (I did not see it until
I looked at the pictures after taking them). It has had little use with
none of the gold worn. I know you will be thrilled with this pretty little
Antique Heirloom ring which the pictures do not do any justice.
