RARE - Art Deco 14k Cameo Eternity Ring by Sydney Berman
This type of cameo ring is so hard to come by. I am excited to have been able to place it in store for you. Acquired here in San Antonio, this ring was a wedding band for a lovely lady named Quirina in 1937. The ring was passed down to her daughter and then to her grandson. She was an avid collector of jewelry and shared her fashion sense with her children. The ring has been loved and taken care of for many years, but now is looking for a new forever home. It is crafted out of hefty 14k yellow gold with a wide band at 12.7mm and set with eight (8) oval shell and mother of pearl cameos. The cameos are accented by prong set pearls and a rope designed edge. Some cameos have loss of detail from age and wear and two have cracks but are intact and secure (please view photos.) One of the most beautiful pieces I have seen by famed jewelry designer Sydney Berman. For a quick bio on Berman please read past the item specifics.

Gold symbolizes the purity of the spiritual aspect of "All That Is". It is symbolic of spirituality and development in the realm of complete understanding, allowing one to both attain and maintain communion with the source of all being. It has been called "the master healer". It is an excellent mineral for purification of the physical body.
The energy of gold can be used to balance the energy fields and to assist one in the elimination of ego conflicts and feelings of futility. It can also help to assuage the overburden of responsibility, to combat feelings of depression and inferiority, to allow one to both understand and to dispense with self-reproach, and to excitation and states of anger.
