I got this from a flea market a number of years ago. Not long ago, I found another exactly like it on the local internet site where I do my selling. Apparently, it was gold plated once upon a time. Six prongs needed to secure a tiny crystal or zircon. The silversmith's initials are all but worn away.
It's one of my favorite rings.
Thanks for looking/loving, friends!

You have inspired me to get a jewelers' loupe but ah, it's going to take me a minute. But I did spy a brooch today at a community sale. Sweet widower guy was so happy when I told him what it was. Gave him props to you on that...
Thanks for all the great posts and info.
OGF - thank you so much! So, what WAS this beautiful brooch? Do tell.
I have two jeweler's loups of different strengths. The one used to take these photos has the stronger magnification.
Pretty. Why is it one of your faves?
katherine - I just like the daintiness of it. I've only seen one other one with this design.
