Indian Ring - 21K Gold & Coral

A small sun of gold granules, with a coral for a heart.

This ring was made in India in 21-karat gold, set with coral. A single round coral bead sits in a raised gold bezel at the center, with its natural red-orange color pierced by a small hole. Around it spreads a halo of granulation work, with gold balls and fine beaded wire encircling the stone. The band is decorated with scrolling and floral engraving, and the shoulders step up toward the oval top.

A statement ring in the original sense. Wear it with plain clothes.
