My Darling Juliet | Antique Rutilated Quartz Ring

Antique Rutilated Quartz Ring in 10K Gold | Early 1900s Heirloom

ABOUT:
This antique 10K gold ring from the early 1900s features a high-domed rutilated quartz cabochon, full of fine golden threads and rare flashes of blue, like lightning frozen in glass. The softly scalloped bezel and tapered shoulders reflect the shift from Victorian sentiment to Edwardian simplicity, with a bit of modern boho edge.

It came from a dear friend, passed down through her family for generations. When it reached me, the band was wrapped in a small piece of masking tape, a makeshift fix to help it fit the last person who wore it. A small, sweet detail that quietly shows the life it’s already lived. The ring has since been professionally cleaned, restored, and reshaped to get it ready for its next chapter.

It looks especially good on the thumb, but also works beautifully on the index or middle finger. I can imagine it paired with a custom curved diamond band if you’re someone who loves to stack.

Styling Notes:
A soulful statement ring with a natural, earthy elegance. Wear it solo or stack it with antique bands, especially curved ones for a layered, lived-in look.

CONDITION:

This ring is in excellent antique condition. The band has been professionally cleaned and reshaped to ensure comfort and stability while preserving its original character. The rutilated quartz is secure and shows no chips or cracks. Minor surface wear consistent with age may be present, but nothing that takes away from its beauty or wearability.

All of the jewelry listed here is antique and pre-owned, meaning it may show signs of wear, which is a testament to its rich history and the stories it carries. Far from being “perfect” or “brand new,” this is what makes antique pieces so special – they’ve been loved, cherished, and worn over time. I believe that these imperfections only add to their character and charm, and they’re ready for their next chapter with you.

As with all antique jewelry, the stones may show subtle signs of wear, like surface abrasions or a natural patina, which only add to their unique character. Antique cuts and settings can differ from modern styles, contributing to their charm and individuality. Any significant imperfections or repairs will be clearly noted in the listings. Thank you for appreciating the beauty of their uniqueness!

Shipping insurance is required and INCLUDED in cost for any item over $200 to ensure your purchase is fully protected during transit.
