1970s Brutalist Sterling Silver Carnelian Sculptural Statement Ring Size 6.5

A commanding vintage 1970s Brutalist ring conceived as wearable sculpture. A substantial tumbled carnelian appears to erupt from a mass of molten sterling silver, its warm translucent orange-red color glowing against deeply oxidized recesses. The dramatic openwork crown is formed from irregular ribbons, jagged projections, and organic apertures that reveal the stone from multiple angles. A broad, bark-textured band continues the raw sculptural treatment, with intentionally uneven edges that preserve the artist-made character. Despite its substantial scale, the open construction keeps the ring visually dynamic on the hand. * Ring size: 6.5 * Face: approximately 1 inch (26mm) in diameter * Height above the finger: approximately 7/16 inch (11mm) * Carnelian: approximately 1/2 inch (14mm) long and wide * Band width: approximately 8mm * Weight: approximately 14.5 grams * Unsigned and unmarked; carefully tested as sterling silver Very good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age.
