Modernist Silver and Baltic Amber Wide-Band Cocktail Ring - A modernist wide-band cocktail ring featuring a large, oval Baltic amber cabochon. The stone exhibits deep orange-red tones and prominent internal sun spangle inclusions, characteristic of heated amber. The cabochon is secured in a raised bezel setting that is integrated into a heavy, tapering silver-toned metal band. The interior of the band displays a rough, matte texture. No hallmarks, maker marks, or metal fineness stamps are visible in any of the images. Based on the color and oxidation pattern, the piece is consistent with sterling silver, though it may be silver-plated. Size: US 5. The ring is in good vintage condition. The silver-toned metal shows significant surface scratches, small dings, and heavy tarnish throughout the exterior and interior surfaces (photos 2, 3, and 5). Professional testing is recommended to confirm precious metal content as no hallmarks are present. The amber cabochon exhibits minor surface abrasions and light wear consistent with age (photos 1 and 7).
