Thank you! ➤ Discover the beauty of antique jewelry, which is not only durable but also resistant to fading! ➤ Product Description Spanish Damascene craftsmanship, an art of metal inlay, can be traced back over 2000 years to Damascus, the capital of Syria. It was later introduced to the Iberian Peninsula (modern-day Spain and Portugal) in the early eighth century with the Moorish invasions. Spanish Damascene pieces primarily feature floral and bird motifs, as well as Islamic geometric patterns. The technique involves using a base metal, such as iron or a copper alloy, which is then finely engraved. Thin sheets of real gold and silver are then used to create patterns, which are hammered and inlaid into the engraved lines. A layer of lacquer is applied and fired to prevent oxidation and rust of the base metal, followed by polishing. Finally, intricate micro-engraving techniques are employed before the piece is set into jewelry. (Note: There are signs of use on the adjustable part below the ring band in the photo, which do not affect the overall aesthetic.) 【Characteristics of Damascene Craftsmanship】 (1) Oxidized metal base: The metal base has a black appearance. (2) Hand-chiseled: Engravings are typically concave, with distinct outlines. (3) Cicada-wing-thin gold and silver foil: Hand-hammered into the chiseled patterns, these foils are delicate and fine. ★ Era: Approximately 1960s ~ 1970s ★ Origin: Spain ★ Size: Adjustable international ring size 12 and above (please inform us of your preferred ring size in advance) / Ring face diameter 1.75 cm and above / Ring face length approximately 1.7 cm ★ Material: 24k gold alloy inlaid with floral patterns The antique Western jewelry we collect is mostly from the 1930s to 1980s!
