This vintage men's jade ring is crafted in 14k yellow gold, weighs 4.2g and measures 9.5mm wide and 6.5mm deep. This immaculately crafted vintage 1950's ring of oriental inspiration characterizes the simplicity of design inherent in classic rings and ornamental objects adorned with this gemstone which has preserved its popularity since ancient times. Exposing merely the natural beauty of the gemstone, this vintage ring of plain and discreet elegance exposes an attention-seeking saddle-cut jade measuring 20mm long and 8mm wide, graded a most desirable 'apple-green' color. Surmounting a curvaceous yellow gold gallery, this alluring gemstone is embraced by sturdy shoulders of rounded angular design, descending diminutively to merge into a spherical band and an easily sizable shank.

Jade is the generic term for two different gems, nephrite and jadeite, both of which were regarded as the same stone until the beginning of the 19th century when gemologists discovered that despite great resemblances they were two distinct gemstones. Jadeite, the raw material for jade, is rarer and therefore more precious than nephrite. Jadeite is found in China, Russia and Guatemala, but the most highly prized stones come from Burma or Myanmar, as it is known today.
