Vintage Moonstone Cabochon Ring 14K Gold
Vintage ring crafted in fine 14K yellow gold displaying a mesmerizing luminescent Moonstone cabochon. The gemstone is securely bezel set and framed by a rope twist design accented by applied shoulder embellishments. Circa 1950-60’s. With a silvery light that seems to come from within, moonstone has many associations with the Moon. This beautiful gem also has a long history of use as a talisman for fertility, love, protection, and sleep. In Eastern cultures, “lighted” gems, such as moonstone, indicated good luck. The ever-changing, white reflections on its surface, which gemologists call adularescence, seemed to suggest a powerful, good spirit dwelled within. Pictured as received from a local estate. Cleaning or polishing to as new are available by request at no cost. Please note in comments at check out if desired.
