    When I looked at the piece of course my first thought was Scottish. I am just really not with it. Piece is not marked any where. Trim reads and acid tested as sterling. Brass back. Looks custom. Getting Preparing to list this for sale and just hoping to get some directions :)

    Measures 2 1/2" long and 1 3/4" at its widest point (at the back)

    Thoughts?

    Could be Scottish, but difficult to be sure without marks. I'd go with 'shield' or 'kite' shape. The two banded panels are very likely agate, not sure on the red stone, possibly a brecciated jasper but it looks a bit regular in pattern for that, it is certainly interesting. It gives me the 70's vibe.
