General Information:
- US Size: Between 6.25 and 6.50
- Total Carat Weight: Professionally estimated by formula to be 1.58 ctw
- Total Precious Metal Weight: 3.51 dwt
- Precious Metal Material: 14k white gold
- Dimensions: Overall, this ring jacket measures 18.05 mm at its widest point (largest/centermost marquise diamonds) and rises about 4.80 mm from the finger. The opening between the diamond chevrons measures exactly 6 mm. This means that an engagement ring that measures 6 mm wide will NOT fit within this opening. However, a ring that has a raised stone may fit if the portion that hugs the finger is less than 5.95 mm or so (if you have questions or concerns regarding a possible fit, please message to discuss before purchasing!). The space between the top and bottom shanks (the open split) tapers from 3.50 mm at the shoulders just past the outermost diamonds, to 2.10 mm at the base of the shank. This means that bands with a width of 2 mm and thinner will fit this guard/jacket.
- Weight: A very desirable weight of 5.48 grams
- Markings: The interior of this ring is stamped with “14Kv” with no maker’s mark. It has been tested to confirm its 14 karat gold purity.
- Era: This ring jacket is believed to date to the second half of the 20th century, but could date as late as the 2010s. Beyond what our years of collecting, dealing, learning and refining our expertise enable us to determine, we cannot ascertain a more precise date range or history than this without knowledge of the piece’s exact provenance.
- Buyer Notes: This ring jacket is a brilliant addition to any jewelry stack, and is a perfect partner to an engagement ring for added oomph. Ring jackets are a fun way to upgrade a ring without replacing it, and make for bold anniversary bands as well. The beauty of this style ring is that it may be worn with or without an engagement ring, and likewise, offer a dramatic way to dress up a ring on special occasions. This ring packs a huge punch with a multitude dazzling diamonds of top notch clarity and a kiss of warmth. Prospective buyers, please note that a few diamonds do wiggle just a touch when pressed firmly with the finger. As we advise with all our jewelry, we encourage the next caretaker to have the prongs checked and tightened BEFORE any consistent wear, simply as a security measure. Such responsible maintenance is to be expected of secondhand jewelry no matter its age or type. The price has been fairly set to reflect both this need and its ever so slight off-centeredness, just as much as its excellent weight and superb quality of the diamonds. This band can be adjusted and resized by your jeweler post-purchase, and it can be separated to become two separate diamond contour bands instead of a split shank ring guard/jacket.
- This ring has an average market value of $4775.

The Story:
A timeless addition designed to enhance a classic solitaire engagement ring, this ring jacket dates to the latter half of the 20th century, but is as stylish today as the day it was first made. The ring’s simplicity renders it a staple piece for any collection, and is equally chic when worn solo and when adorning a solitaire. The ring boasts loads of sparkle with vibrant, bright white marquise diamonds arranged in opposing graduated chevrons, the largest marquise diamonds at the very center on top and bottom. This elegant tapering effect offers fiery views from every angle, and wraps the finger in an abundance of brilliant rainbows.
This piece appears to have been created as a custom wedding band or anniversary upgrade, with a central opening that allows it to be worn as a frame to a simple solitaire diamond or gemstone ring, or even paired with more elaborate styles, such as Deco and Mid Century rings and east-west oriented rings. On the other hand, this piece could certainly be styled alone, its angular and architectural appearance creating an incredibly upscale silhouette by baring skin in between each diamond point. With eighteen impressive diamonds weighing in at 1.58 carats in a very nice heft of white gold, this ring is a showstopping jewelry essential.

Items do not come with physical documentation, appraisals, or certifications, unless explicitly stated in the item description and/or title. While jewelry is inspected upon procurement by the shop as well as prior to shipment, Revival Fine Jewelry cannot guarantee a warranty once items leave our inventory, given the delicate and individual nature of secondhand articles and the unaccountability of buyer handling post-purchase.

Returns: While Revival Fine Jewelry aims to provide a smooth experience from start to finish, customers are encouraged to reach out regarding any issue or dissatisfaction, so that we may work together toward a resolution. If a return is desired, the shop must be notified of an intention to return within 3 days of confirmed delivery, and item(s) must be shipped back to the shop within 7 days of confirmed delivery.

Sale Terms: Sale prices are only valid within the prescribed sale window, unless otherwise stated by Revival Fine Jewelry or agreed upon between Revival Fine Jewelry and a designated customer. To maintain business sustainability and general fairness, individual customers are not entitled to exclusive notification of, or owed access to, store sales antecedently. Orders processed prior to a promotion or sale, items placed on layaway prior to a sale, and payments paid through layaway prior to a sale will not be retroactively adjusted to reflect sale pricing or terms.
Specially Negotiated Deals: Items purchased at specially negotiated discounts, deals or prices through any platform between Revival Fine Jewelry and a designated customer are considered final sale, including rates arranged and agreed upon via Facebook, Instagram, email or any other method. Closing deals at special rates reflects a desire by both parties to reach an expeditious and absolute sale. The intention of specially negotiated discounts, deals or sale prices through any platform between Revival Fine Jewelry and a designated customer, is to eliminate extra expenses and/or use of time and resources to formally list or re-list items per their specific and inherent value-determining qualities, as well as avoid unseen overhead business costs, stocking obligations, and all other disclosed or undisclosed monetary and nonmonetary expenditures.
Pricing: Revival Fine Jewelry reserves the right to decrease, increase, alter and modify inventory pricing to meet market rarity, demand or value; to offset platform, transaction or seller's fees; to adapt to economic inflation and fluctuation; and to defray specific business expenses. Pricing is the sole discretion of every small business.
Regarding Brooches & Pins: Often significantly and curiously undervalued jewelry items, brooches, pins and stick pins are treasured pieces of history in this shop. Accordingly, their pricing is calculated analogous to other fine jewelry, including their symbolic meaning, rarity and historical prestige. Such pieces are typically converted to other forms of jewelry, and are therefore becoming increasingly rare in their original states. Aside from being perfectly wearable as sophisticated lapel ornaments, brooches and pins of all kinds are prime candidates for many kinds of fine jewelry conversions, including rings, earrings, pendants, and charms, if so desired by the consumer post-purchase. Revival Fine Jewelry does not perform conversion projects for customers.
Regarding Storage & Boxes: All specifications, including but not limited to the measurements, age, origins, and material compositions are supplied in good faith as professional estimations constructed using professional grade tools, years of learned and honed skills, educational resources and academic scholarship, and refined research methods.

Kindly keep in mind that this and all items are sold as-is vintage, antique and estate secondhand wares, and consequently bear conditional wear in matter and operation commensurate with age and use.
