This really fun ring is vintage circa 1970. It is fashioned from 18kt yellow gold and weighs 23.5 grams which is heavy for a ring. It is stamped on the inside KN 1970 KN 18k with a copyright mark. The ring is a size 5 and it can be made larger. The measurement across the top of the ring where the alligator head and reaching arms are is 1 1/2 inches. The artist did a great job on this alligator, he is sort of leaping around your finger and has his mouth open and his sharp teeth showing, very nicely done. He has emerald eyes and is in like new condition.
