I have only come upon this specific design once in the past - again in the form of a bracelet, that one accompanied by its matching pair of earrings - and have been looking for it since.

The ring is a size 7 with its face measuring 7/8" by 3/4". It rises 5/15" off the finger when worn and weighs 7.6 grams...
