The Vintage 22ct Gold D-Shaped Wedding Ring
Sold November 2024
This yellow-gold wedding ring, circa 1970s-1980s, is fully hallmarked by the Assay Office of London for 22ct gold.
Its higher gold content, when compared with 18ct or 9ct rings, means that it has a richer, more vibrant color and a deeper lustre, making it a more attractive option for those who want their wedding ring to shine and stand out. Additionally, 22ct gold is less likely to tarnish, ensuring that the ring will retain its beauty and value for years to come. The high gold content of this ring means the metal is softer than an 18ct to 9ct ring, so the ring has some wear from age, but it is in good overall condition.
