Description

Vtg ESPO Sterling Silver Amethyst Ring Abstract Brutalist MCM Size 6 | 5.31g. The smooth stones provide a striking contrast against the rugged silver texture, enhancing the visual depth without detracting from the raw, sculptural form. The stones are secure in their settings with deep color and pleasing polish. Striking and collectible mid-century modern brutalist ring by renowned American designer ESPO (Esposito). This sculptural statement piece is crafted in solid sterling silver and is clearly stamped “Sterling ESPO”, confirming authenticity. The ring features a bold abstract, architectural composition with stacked, geometric silver forms and a deeply textured, oxidized finish characteristic of brutalist jewelry from the 1960s–1970s. The design is intentionally asymmetrical and highly dimensional, evoking modernist architecture or a miniature cityscape—an iconic aesthetic of the era. Set throughout the structure are deep purple amethyst cabochons, bezel-set and integrated seamlessly into the design. The smooth stones provide a striking contrast against the rugged silver texture, enhancing the visual depth without detracting from the raw, sculptural form. The total weight is: 5.31 grams Size 6 Good used condition, with normal light surface wear consistent with age and gentle use, preserving the vintage character of the piece. Sterling retains an attractive patina, especially within the intricate structure which enhances the depth and detail of the design. The stones are secure in their settings with deep color and pleasing polish.
