Three Gold and Colored Stone Rings

The first 18 karat gold ring centered by a peridot, within black enamel surrounds, size 5¾, fitted with inner sizing band, signed A. Clunn; the second ring centered by a cabochon rubellite within an 18 karat textured gold mounting, size 9¾, fitted with inner sizing band, signed A. Clunn; the third ring set with a shield-shaped carved rubellite within a textured 22 karat gold mounting, size 10, fitted with inner sizing band, signed Denise Roberge.

All pieces in good condition unless otherwise stated. PERIDOT RING: The peridot is a medium yellowish green color and is eye clean. One corner is chipped and the facet junctions are lightly abraded. Tiny nicks to the enamelling in a few places, and some scratching to the gold. RUBELLITE CABOCHON: The rubellite is a lively shade of slightly purplish pink and is moderately included; some small surface reaching inclusions. The shank has few signs of wear, but there is a small indentation where the inner sizing band is connected. CARVED RUBELLITE: the rubellite is shield shaped and one half is carved with a cross emblem. The mounting is very heavy and fitted with an inner sizing band signed A. Clunn. It is also signed Denise Roberge 22K on a plaque applied underneath the inner sizing band.
