Antique Silver Three Stone Ring with Red Cabochons - An antique silver band ring featuring three bezel-set red cabochon stones. The central oval cabochon is housed in a decorative bezel with a corded or twisted-rope border. It is flanked by two smaller round cabochon stones of a similar saturated orange-red color. The shoulders and setting are further ornamented with relief granules and stamped linear details. The metal shows significant surface oxidation and toning consistent with age. Inside the band, there is an impressed rectangular cartouche containing three characters. The characters are not clearly legible as a name or specific purity mark, appearing as numeric shapes that could potentially be read as 825, though the final digit is partially obscured. Weight: 1.833 g Ring Size: US 6.5. The ring is in antique condition with moderate wear throughout. Heavy tarnish and oxidation are present across the silver surfaces and within the decorative recesses (photo 1). The central oval stone exhibits visible surface scratches and minor abrasions (photo 2). One of the side round settings shows an irregular gap between the stone and the metal bezel (photo 3). The hallmarks inside the band are worn and not fully legible (photo 4).
