This ring is made of 18-karat yellow gold (750/1000), with a setting crafted from intertwined and openwork threads, supporting an oval-shaped natural coral cabochon. The stone, which ranges in color from deep salmon red to orange-red, is gently polished in a style typical of high-quality Mediterranean coral, probably of Sardinian or Japanese origin, the two historically recognized major sources.
The ring's structure, composed of multiple symmetrical curved bands, gives the frame an airy, architectural volume. The cabochon's setting is adorned with a delicate rope or bead pattern, a subtle nod to traditional jewelry-making techniques.
Estimated period: This ring appears to date from the 1960s–1970s, a period when coral was particularly popular in yellow gold jewelry, often set as a large cabochon on generous volumes and organic shapes.
Style:
Italian vintage or neo-baroque, characterized by the use of precious natural materials (coral, turquoise, lapis) combined with intricate gold structures.
Mediterranean craftsmanship influenced by Riviera jewelry and traditional Italian houses (Naples, Torre del Greco).
The filigree work and cabochon presentation are typical of a retro chic style, which emphasizes the material rather than the faceted stone.
