Talk about a regal statement piece! This sumptuous bauble holds a fine, (and massive) step cut amethyst in a strikingly well executed 18k yellow gold and diamond mounting. The ring is signed by H Stern, a luxury brand built around fine Brazilian gems, such as this one. The lines of the mount, with precise rows of diamonds accenting each edge, are superb, and perfectly complement the cut of the stone. 18k gold with a 23 carat amethyst .36 total carats of diamonds, ca. 1960. Current finger size 6.5
