This tank ring from the 1940s- 50s is a classic style for a tank. During this time, the jewelry trend was big and bold but money to pay for high-quality stones was scarce. Thus, many pieces of tank jewelry ( tank after literal "tanks" of WWII) were made with synthetic stones, and this is a great example.

Absolutely glorious craftsmanship, condition commensurate with age, French hallmarks for sterling silver on the rear end of the shank, and it appears to have some gold overlay on the flat parts of the face.. Size 7 and 13.2 g. The patina is really lovely, it could be sized but would lose some of that.
