Crafted in solid 18-karat gold and hallmarked “TIFFANY 18K,” this piece blends refined luxury with a distinctive aesthetic. The design features alternating oval panels of deep green enamel (a rich verdant hue) set flush into the gold band—creating a textured, almost architectural visual rhythm.

Metal & finish: Solid 18K yellow gold

Enamel details: Green enamel panels, in excellent condition with only minimal signs of age

Ring size: US 5.25 (cannot be resized due to the enamel design)

Band width: ~ 4.3 mm at its broadest point

Weight: ~ 2.7 dwt (approximately 4.2 grams)

Markings: Stamped “TIFFANY 18K” on the inner shank

This subtle yet striking ring is ideal as a standalone statement or layered with finer bands for contrast. It embodies the elegance of mid-century luxury with a touch of personality through color.

Condition & care notes:
This is a vintage piece; light surface wear consistent with age may be present, but the enamel retains its color and integrity. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals, extreme heat, and sharp knocks. Store separately to prevent abrasion against harder gemstones or metals.

Why this piece stands out:
Unlike generic gold bands, enamel work (especially in color) is relatively rare and elevates the visual character of the ring. The Tiffany provenance further enhances desirability and signaled craftsmanship that collectors and aficionados recognize at a Occasions & Styling Possibilities

This ring is versatile and can be a surprisingly wearable companion for many outfits and moments. Some styling cues and occasions:

Daily wear / stacking: Worn alone, it’s elegant and modest. Stacked with thinner gold bands (plain or textured) it becomes part of a curated finger look.

Work or business settings: Subtle enough not to overpower, but unique enough to invite a second glance (especially the green enamel).

Evening / cocktail: It can serve as a restrained color accent ring when paired with coordinating emerald/green gemstones, black/white contrast jewelry, or monochrome outfits.

Gifting or milestone: Because it carries Tiffany provenance and is not a mass-produced design, it could be a meaningful gift for anniversaries, birthdays, or collector-marked moments.

Editorial / fashion shoots: Its color and texture make it photogenic—ideal for closeups or as a layering piece in fashion spreads.

Pairing suggestions:

With emerald or peridot jewels for color harmony

With black enamel, onyx, or white gemstones for contrast

Against crisp neutrals (white, ivory, black) to let the green enamel pop

Investment & Resale Perspective

While no jewelry investment is guaranteed, high-quality vintage pieces by prestigious names like Tiffany carry structural advantages in the resale market. Here are key considerations and how your ring stacks up:

Why Tiffany jewelry tends to retain or appreciate value:

Rarity & craftsmanship: Unique features—such as enamel work, limited-production runs, or design peculiarities—add scarcity and collector interest.

Quality metals and materials: Because your ring is 18K gold, it has intrinsic material value; the enamel adds aesthetic, non-metal value.

Resale demand for vintage/estate as curated alternatives: More buyers today are looking at vintage as a more sustainable, curated alternative to new “luxury drop” jewelry. See less
