Vintage 1940s Retro Ruby Floral Band Ring 14K Rose/Yellow Gold

This gorgeous 1940s Retro wide ruby wedding band was designed by Philip Krasnow of Krasnow Manufacturing Company in New York. Krasnow had at least 5 design patents and you can see two of his patented designs in my shop. Although not specifically patented, this ring displays design elements similar to those that were patented. This ring is one of my favorites.

These wide bands, particularly set with rubies, were enormously popular through the 1940s. The ring is over 3/8 of an inch (10.5 mm) wide and it sports 12 natural faceted rubies. The background is a stunning rose gold with a basket weave design edged with a rose gold ribbon design. Upon it is a repeating design of raised yellow gold arabesques and stemmed ruby flower buds.

The ring is a size 5-7/8, but because of its width (10.5 mm), it wears more like a size 5-1/2 It cannot be sized without breaking the design. This gorgeous ring is fully marked 14K and with the Krasnow trademark. 6.6 grams/4.3 dwt.

From the estate of a retired jeweler, condition is excellent. It is as crisp and new as the day it was made some 60 to 70 years ago.
