Machine-age smoky quartz ring
designed for Alton
rings, Sweden, 1972
$99.00
This unusual sterling silver ring is by Sweden's leading silversmithy, Alton. It combines the traditional (the diamond-cut gemstone) with the contemporary (the cage holding the stone). It will fit most medium fingers thanks to the overlapping shank sections. This ring was bought as new old stock and is in pristine condition apart from the patina acquired from languishing forgotten in a drawer for 30 years
