Vintage Snake Ring With Garnets And GlassFeatures of vintage snake ring with garnets and glass
Painted glass has been often used as a replacement for crystals and other transparent gemstones. The good qualities of glass include shine and translucency, plus the price of glass crystals and glass beads is much lower than the price of the actual precious stones. Glass crystals can have many colors, and the ones that you can find on vintage snake rings include red, green, white, black and transparent. Although most of the time these glass crystals are used to create the eyes of the snake, there are some vintage snake rings that have several tiny glass crystals decorating the body of the snake. Garnets were quite popular in the vintage era, but they still are today. A number of vintage style jewelry is decorated with beautiful red garnets. Even though garnets aren't real precious or semi precious stones but minerals, they look great and their color makes them the favorite of many. The color of garnets is very similar to the color of the rubies: it is a deep fiery red alternating between wine red and brighter tones. Vintage snake rings with garnets and glass can be bought in flea markets, retro shops or online. You can also find them in some antique stores. They look very nice because of the shiny and bright colors of the garnets and the glass. The snake ring itself is either made of sterling silver or copper treated with substances to look old, or gold and white gold. The prices of such vintage snake rings can differ very much depending on the material they are made of and the size of the garnets. However, since the vintage style is so sought for nowadays, the price of these rings is still around a few hundred dollars.
