Vintage 14K Yellow Gold Men’s Ring, Lapis Cabochon, Fingerprint Texture, Sz 10
This vintage men’s ring is crafted in solid 14-karat yellow gold and features a striking deep blue lapis lazuli cabochon at its center. The wide gold band is adorned with an organic, fingerprint-like textured surface, adding both tactile richness and visual depth. Sized at US 10 and weighing a substantial 15.2 grams, this ring showcases bold mid-century design, likely from the 1960s–1980s, when textured gold and natural gemstones were popular in artisan and small workshop jewelry. The smooth bezel setting securely holds the approximately 12–14 mm domed lapis, whose royal blue color and natural inclusions embody the timeless beauty of this historic gemstone.
Condition
Good vintage condition with minor surface wear consistent with age. The gold’s textured surface shows light scratches and a natural patina, preserving its vintage character. The lapis cabochon is securely set with no visible cracks or chips. We are leaving any polishing or restoration decisions to the buyer, as the current finish maintains the authentic vintage appeal.
