I am crazy about these Victorian needlepoint rings, blending turquoise with other stones. This beautiful example combines tiny square turquoise stones with prong-set white seed pearls in a rectangular yin/yang arrangement and a setting with wee gold balls and two dotted cartouches. Really a lovely ring face. The band is actually three lines or bands connected in three spots. The widest spot, at back, is stamped 14K, and the face has been tested at 14K as well.

In the Victorian era, turquoise was considered a stone of love. Queen Victoria gave turquoise rings to her bridesmaids.

This is a nice, quality ring in great antique condition. There is a slight wonkiness to alignment of the ring face; please study the photos. The biggest pearl (above the line of turquoise) has lost a little luster. None of these quirks are noticeable when you have the ring on.

Again--please study the photos to be sure this is the piece for you!

Measurements
band size: between 5. 5 and 5. 75
face, north-south: 5/8 inch
face, east-west: 1/4 inch (not including the rectangular cartouches on each side)
rise from finger: 1/8 inch
band width: almost 3/16

This could be sizable by your jeweler at the very back, the part with the metal stamping.

This is one of two turquoise and pearl rings I have listed; the other is featured in the last photo.

Antique ring boxes not included--though they are available in other listings.
