This powerful, sculptural ring features an earthy chunk of gold-bearing quartz. The stone is mottled in gray, black, and white, and shot through with natural veins of gold. The rugged finish is the perfect counterpoint to the smooth lines and high polish of the mounting, which grounds the rock onto the finger with a sleek oval frame of gold. A study in marvelous, textural contrast. 14k yellow gold Ca. 1970. Current finger size 6.75.
