Vintage Scottish 18ct Gold Emerald Ring · Square Shank Geometric Ring

A wonderfully distinctive vintage Scottish ring dating to 1976, crafted in solid 18k yellow gold and set with a rich green square-cut emerald.
 
The design is unmistakably 1970s, with a broad geometric face decorated with raised and recessed architectural details surrounding the central emerald. Adding to its distinctive character, the shank itself is squared rather than traditionally round, giving the ring a wonderfully architectural profile and a particularly comfortable, stable feel on the finger.
 
Fully British hallmarked inside the band for 18ct gold, Edinburgh, 1976. At 5.3 grams, this is a pleasingly substantial vintage ring with a beautifully unusual design.
