VTG Sterling Silver 925 Baltic Amber Ring Size 13.5 Wide Band Turkish Style 3.95

This vintage sterling silver ring features a raised bezel-set cabochon of Baltic amber, measuring approximately 8.5mm long by 6.7mm wide, set within a v-shaped crossover band that evokes the ornate geometry of Turkish-style silverwork. The band is tapered and wide, with a flat bottom and wavy edge detailing that frames the amber like a miniature architectural flourish. Marked 925 but unsigned, the ring weighs 3.95 grams and is a size 13.5—making it ideal for thumb wear or as a bold statement ring for men. The amber gemstone has lost its polished luster, likely due to age, but retains its warm honey hue and natural inclusions, offering a raw, organic beauty that collectors often appreciate. Condition is good vintage, with surface wear consistent with age and use. The amber could be professionally polished for added shine or left untouched to preserve its vintage patina.
