Barbara Bixby Sterling Silver Carnelian,...

Updated August 23, 2026

Turquoise, and Pearl Ring. This exquisite ring features a substantial, intricately carved carnelian cabochon as its centerpiece, set within a detailed sterling silver mounting. The carnelian is adorned with a small, four-petal flower motif crafted from vibrant turquoise, accented by a tiny pearl at its center. The shank of the ring is richly textured with a braided or rope-like pattern, indicative of artisanal craftsmanship. The presence of '18K & SILVER' on the tag suggests a mixed-metal design, likely with 18K gold accents in addition to sterling silver. The overall design suggests an influence of Art Nouveau or a revivalist style, possibly incorporating elements from Asian or Middle Eastern aesthetics due to the stone choices and decorative motifs. The metal appears to be sterling silver, with some darker patina in the recessed areas enhancing the design's depth.
