Their bodies stretch along the band, their arms rise overhead, and their hands become the prongs that cradle an oval moonstone between them. The cabochon measures 8 x 6 mm and carries the soft, milky glow moonstone is loved for, with a quiet sheen that drifts across the surface as the hand moves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe design speaks the language of Art Nouveau, the turn-of-the-century movement that made the female form a vehicle for nature, myth and motion. This ring belongs to the revival that followed some seventy years later. Made circa 1970 to 1980, when Nouveau curves returned to posters, fashion and jewelry, it is modeled with real softness: the figures are fluid rather than literal, and the darkened recesses throw them into relief against the polished highs of hip, shoulder and arm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the hand it sits low and close, rising just 5.3 mm off the finger. The top measures 9.5 mm across and tapers to a slim 3.5 mm band, and at 4.1 grams it is comfortable enough for everyday wear and distinctive enough to start a conversation. Moonstone is the June birthstone, long associated with the moon, intuition and new beginnings, which makes this a meaningful choice for a birthday, a milestone or a gift to yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMetal: sterling silver\u003cbr\u003eStone: one oval moonstone cabochon, 8 x 6 mm\u003cbr\u003eFinger size: 7.5\u003cbr\u003eTop width: 9.5 mm, tapering to 3.5 mm at the band\u003cbr\u003eHeight off finger: 5.3 mm\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 4.1 grams\u003cbr\u003eEra: Art Nouveau Revival, circa 1970 to 1980\u003cbr\u003eCondition: pre-owned vintage, cleaned and inspected\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSelected for The Vintage Vault by Dimitria, a fine jewelry professional since 1992.
