Description
This extraordinary handcrafted wide-band ring is the work of artist José Albovias, combining oxidized sterling silver (.925), 10K yellow gold, and 14K rose gold into a single dramatic composition that looks like it was forged by a medieval goldsmith with a modern art degree. The wide, open-back band features a beautifully textured, undulating silhouette with swirl accent details flanking a brilliant round-cut blue topaz center stone, prong-set in gold and bursting with that signature sky-blue fire. Hallmarks stamped on both terminals confirm the mixed-metal pedigree: .925 on one side, 10K and 14K on the other, leaving absolutely no doubt about the quality of materials used. The ring arrives in its original green felt drawstring pouch with accompanying provenance card, making this a collector-ready, gallery-worthy piece that simply cannot be replicated.
