VERY GOOD. This British Arts & Crafts era Silver sugarloaf Chrysoprase ring is in very good antique condition. Her gemstone is securely set and smooth to the touch, with only a couple of very subtle dents to note. The Sterling Silver shank and settings have accrued a gorgeous patina over the years, with the ornate shank design lasting incredibly well. The engravings have worn away slightly at the back of the band, but this only adds to the charm of the piece. The work of renowned jeweller Bernard Instone, she is a stunning testament to a beautiful era in jewellery!
