Ruby Simulant & Paste Five Stone Ring 9ct Gold Vintage 1972 - Size O
- Rich ruby-red colour contrasted with bright white sparkle gives this distinctive 1972 five-stone ring an attractive presence on the finger. The alternating stones sit within an elongated setting, framed by flowing gold detail that creates a particularly characterful vintage look.
- Crafted in solid 9ct yellow gold, the ring carries a Birmingham hallmark dating to 1972. The sculpted shoulders flow into the stone-set centre, while the low-profile design keeps the ring comfortable and easy to wear.

AT A GLANCE
- Design – Distinctive elongated stone-set centre with flowing, sculpted gold detailing.
- Appearance – Rich ruby-red colour contrasts with bright white sparkle and warm yellow gold, giving this compact ring noticeable character on the hand.
- Profile / Distinctive Details – Low-profile centre with decorative shoulders and period styling clearly visible from the side.
- Condition – Good vintage condition with visible age-related surface wear to the gold and stone-set area, shown in the enlarged photographs.
- Included – Premium illuminated Cherished Jewellery presentation box, not original to the ring.
CONDITION AND PHOTOGRAPHIC PROOF
- All five stones are present and have been physically checked and are secure within their settings. The solid gold shank remains intact, with surface marks, rubbing and age-related wear visible across the gold and around the stone-set section, consistent with previous use.
- The decorative detailing remains clearly defined and the dated hallmark is photographed in close-up. Macro photographs are deliberately enlarged to show fine detail and can make small marks and surface wear appear considerably more prominent than when the ring is viewed normally on the hand. Please use the hand, measurement, ring-sizer and scale photographs alongside the macro images when assessing the piece.

BUY WITH CONFIDENCE
- Beautiful jewellery doesn't have to be new to be special. Vintage and antique pieces offer character, individuality, timeless style and the pleasure of discovering something different, often with excellent value compared with buying new.
- This appreciation for pre-loved jewellery was passed down from my nan, who never felt the need to buy new. When I inherited her jewellery and began finding new homes for the pieces I wouldn't wear myself, I discovered a passion that became Cherished Jewellery.
- Today, I carefully select vintage and antique jewellery with that same appreciation for character, quality and value.
- Every piece is individually photographed and honestly described, with clear condition information, accurate measurements and gemstone and hallmark details based on the available evidence, helping you buy with confidence.
- Beautiful jewellery with a past, ready to become part of your story.
