in good vintage condition

-she's looking real good for 80 years old
-10k gold has heavy patina, especially throughout the recessed design elements/details, and the rose gold features, which have higher copper content. a jeweler could polish it to a bright hue and luster, but that decision is left to the next caretaker
-black stone is has minor scratches and scuffs, but is relatively free from wear considering the age
-white gold setting has been stabilized with epoxy to prevent it from spinning
-band is thinner and does show hints of previous sizings and repairs

this is a vintage item and will show surface scratches, dents, dings, dulling, wear, patina, and signs of having been worn and loved
