18ct citrine ring from the Retro era of the 1940’s
Gorgeous during the day, and stunning at night, this 18ct citrine ring from the Retro era of the 1940's will always stand out and be admired.
Retro jewellery came in after the Art Deco period and moved away from fine, intricate detail to bold, solid designs. Often set with just one gemstone as the feature of the ring such as here, in this ring is a 5.90 carat citrine that looks even better set into the warm colour of the 18ct gold.
With a gorgeous twist border design around the setting, even the work from under the ring is just astonishing and shows how much time and effort went into hand making this ring.
Measuring 14.8mm across by 18mm, this ring although large, sits and feels so comfortable to on the finger and can easily be worn all day and well into the night.
