Ruby Cluster Ring, 14K White Gold, Big Atomic era Bling, 1950s 1960s

This ring would be splendid on the hand of someone who loves the big airy art rings of the 1950s to early 1960s.  It would do style-wise for people who love Mid Century Atomic, to Hollywood Regency to Mod.

The setting of this ring is completely hand-built. Not cast like the rings of today.

Setting Condition:  Setting in in 'good' condition. There's a ding on the band, but this is fixable by your jeweler when you get the ring re-sized to fit you, I've priced it accordingly.  It doesn't show when being worn.  Prongs and band don't need extra work!
