Vintage 14K White Gold Natural Turquoise Solitaire Ring Size 9.25

Vintage 14K White Gold Natural Turquoise Solitaire Ring Size 9.25 This striking vintage ring, marked 14K for white gold, is a substantial and classic solitaire piece, likely dating from the mid-20th century (1960s-1970s). During this era, large, bold cocktail and solitaire rings were highly fashionable, and turquoise was incorporated into high-end gold settings. The centerpiece is a large, high-domed cabochon of natural turquoise, prized for its bold color and authentic matrix. The stone exhibits a strong blue-green or teal hue with visible dark matrix webbing. The natural turquoise is set high in a simple but secure basket setting, allowing light and attention to focus entirely on the cabochon. Historically, turquoise symbolizes protection, healing, and tranquility, and is often associated with good luck and success. The ring is a size 9.25. The natural turquoise cabochon measures 17 mm by 12 mm and stands 3/8 inch tall.
