    Does anyone know the correct terminology for the type of enamel used in this ring? I am aware of plique d'jour and cloisonne, guilloche, etc. Not sure about this one?
    Thank you!

    The enamel-work is 'basse-taille' - transparent enamel over a 'low-relief' texture or design...

    It's not to my particular taste, but it's a nice ring.

    I'm not a lime green girl - too many Yankee ancestors (and I look lousy in it). Kelly green and I'd cheerfully grab it.

    I prefer the amethyst to the peridot. But that topaz and teal one is really cool. :)

    Thanks so much for the help everyone! I thought GLDRM was going to be GOLD ROOM but I stand corrected! It is an interesting ring for sure!

    A beautiful ring in the colours of the British Suffrage Movement! I own many pieces in these colours, always a pleasure to see :)
