Product Overview
This bold and impressive ring is crafted in 18K yellow gold and features a large radiant cut yellow glass gemstone in an angled display. The gold work has been fashioned by hand and combines a fancy gold scroll ornamentation at each side that runs lengthwise in opposite directions. A series of three ribbons extend from both the north and south positions. 

The history of glass-making dates back to at least 3,600 years ago in Mesopotamia. Archaeological evidence suggests that the first true glass was made in coastal north Syria, Mesopotamia, or Egypt. The earliest known glass objects, of the mid 2,000 BCE, were beads, perhaps initially created as the accidental by-products of metalworking or during the production of faience, a pre-glass vitreous material made through a process similar to glazing.

Glass products remained a luxury until the disasters of the late Bronze Age civilizations seemingly brought glassmaking to a halt. Development of glass technology in India may have begun in 1,730 BCE. In Ancient China, glassmaking had a later start compared to ceramics and metal work. From across the former Roman Empire, archaeologists have recovered glass objects that were used in domestic, industrial, and funerary contexts. Anglo-Saxon glass has been found across England during archaeological excavations of both settlement and cemetery sites. Glass in the Anglo-Saxon period was used in the manufacture of a range of objects, including vessels, beads, windows, and jewellery.
