10 Under $30: Party-Worthy Cocktail Rings

During Prohibition, glamorous, oversized cocktail rings became the cat’s meow (a favorite term of the era) when women wore them as a sort of speakeasy status symbol to flaunt illegal drinking. Almost a century later, after gaining even more momentum in the 40’s and 50’s, they’re as much in vogue as ever, with options to suit any aesthetic. Eye-catching and festive, a cocktail ring is the perfect accessory to carry you through the upcoming holiday party swirl. Herewith, a round up of our ten favorite offerings on eBay right now—all authentically vintage, all under $30, and all adjustable to fit almost any ring size.

Rhinestone Dome (buy it now price, $20)

Hefty domed metal inlaid with sparkly gems feels both disco-y and regal.

 

 

Gold Rose Pearl (buy it now price, $19)

A luminous pearl nestled in delicate gold petals makes a ladylike statement.

 

 

Green Cream Cameo (buy it now price, $14.95)

Lime green adds pop to a classic cameo.

 

 

Brass With Faux Amber Gemstone (buy it now price, $14.95)

Faux Pearl and Jade (buy it now price, $17)

Like something your (very chic) grandma would have worn in the 60's.

A wonderfully irreverent amalgamation of curvy braided metal and a smattering of pearls.

Brass and Art Glass (buy it now price, $19.99)

The combination of topaz glass and ornate, weathered brass lends this ring a pirate's treasure vibe.

A bursting bouquet of lustrous cabochons and faux pearls set in bright yellow gold.
