Uncas Gold Electroplate Ring with Faceted Statement Stone
DESCRIPTION
Bold statement ring by Uncas in a warm gold-tone electroplate finish, set with a large oval faceted stone in a smoky amber-brown hue. The stone sits in a scalloped prong setting atop an open, split gallery band that widens gracefully at the shoulders.
WORTH NOTING
The band is marked with gold electroplate (often abbreviated "HGE" for heavy gold electroplate) rather than solid gold — this is a plated finish over a base metal, not solid gold. The source listing describes the stone as crystal/CZ; we have not independently tested the stone and note it based on the source description and its faceted, glass-like appearance in the photos.
MEASUREMENTS
The stone measures approximately 18mm x 13mm, estimated from the photographed proportions. Ring size was not specified by the source, so please inquire before purchase if size confirmation is needed.
CONDITION
Pre-owned. The gold-tone plating shows light brassing and minor wear at the high points of the band, typical of vintage costume jewelry. The stone appears clean and securely set with no visible chips in the supplied photos. No major damage to the band or gallery is visible; please review close-up images for fine surface detail.
STYLE NOTES
A vintage-inspired cocktail ring with real presence — the warm stone and sculptural gold-tone setting look striking solo or stacked with slim gold-tone bands. A conversation piece for anyone who likes their jewelry with a bit of drama.

Big stone, warm gold glow, and just enough vintage swagger to make any hand look ready for a party. ~ Genevieve
