Antique Victorian Gold Nugget Conversion Ring 14k Vintage Mined Jewelry Estate

$1,175.00

 

Overview:

Originally an antique Victorian era stick pin (circa 1880s to 1900s), the natural gold nugget is crafted in 14 karat yellow gold.

The ring is mounted with the original stick pin. Our jeweler rounded the stick pin into a slim band for the finger. The natural mined from the earth gold nugget is substantial in size, measuring 15mm x 13mm (0.59 x 0.15 inches). The nugget has a lovely rich buttery patina with a softness to the touch.

The ring is in very good condition. We have not cleaned it in order to preserve the patina and collector value.
