Vintage Sterling Silver Tulip Ring with Flower Agate Cabochon Size 9.25 Signed

This unique vintage ring features a Flower Agate cabochon bezel set in a Tulip-shaped profile. Although only marked with an etched maker mark, this size 9.25 ring has been independently tested as Sterling Silver, weighs a hefty 20.14 grams, and has a Native American Artisan's style to it, but we cannot attribute the mark to any specific Silversmith. The large Tulip is approximately 31.7 mm x 23.2 mm, and the bottom of the unique band is 3.24 mm. The ring displays a dark patina typical of its age and has been cleaned but not polished.

Flower Agate, a captivating crystal discovered relatively recently in Madagascar, is a nurturing stone that embodies growth and potential. Its opaque Chalcedony base, often in soft shades of pink, peach, or white, is adorned with stunning, floral-like inclusions of white or cream-colored Chalcedony. These "flowers" aren't true agate banding but rather unique formations that resemble blossoming buds, giving the stone its enchanting name. Metaphysically, Flower Agate is believed to foster self-growth, emotional balance, and a sense of inner peace, making it a beautiful and supportive companion on one's personal journey.
