This gorgeous vintage ring hails from Utrecht in the Netherlands and was made at some point between 1906 and 1953. Bearing a gorgeous sky blue synthetic spinel that glistens at every turn, the angular faces of the bold rectangle are amazing. Held in a fabulous semi bezel north south setting with raised decorative golden edges the blue and gold are rich in their colours together. The gold is 583 gold - which was the standard in the Netherlands until 1953. It is 2 parts per hundred less than modern 14ct gold (which is 585) - and we love that so much - so precise - and because it is not made any longer - we love it all the more.
